Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Times of Stevens Thomson Mason: The Boy Governor of Michigan On several occasions I have heard Mr. Hemans remark, "There seems to be no work in Michigan covering the period from 1837 to 1845, the most eventful years of the State, as it was the period of her birth, and filled full of the trials subsequent to such an event." He said he could never find data on the political parties of that time, nor on Governor Mason and other prominent men of the day, unless by consulting old newspapers and pioneer collections. He determined to gather together all these fragments of historical knowledge, even if in an unsatisfactory manner to himself, place them together in one work and call it the "Life and Times of Stevens T. Mason - the Boy Governor." When a child, Mr. Hemans had been told that Governor Mason, the first Governor of this State, had died in a gutter after an evening's debauch. As he grew to young manhood and stood before the beautiful painting of the Governor in Representative Hall at Lansing and gazed upon that face so full of culture and refinement, the desire was born in his heart to try and refute this criticism and other calumnies heaped upon the Boy Governor. As he began collecting and reading, he became more and more convinced that many unjust remarks had been showered upon Governor Mason, that the beautiful, upright conscientious character of the man had never been shown in its true light. Mr. Hemans' desire grew stronger as his knowledge became deeper in his subject, and I really know that he had the greatest love and admiration for Governor Mason. We all know that if love fills our hearts our hardest task becomes easy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Few people today remember John Swainson. As a teenage soldier he lost both legs in a WWII landmine explosion. Back in the United States, following a meteoric political rise in the Michigan State Senate, Swainson was elected as Michigan's youngest governor since Stevens T. Mason. In 1970 Swainson was elected to the Michigan Supreme Court, becoming one of the few public officials to have served in the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of state government. Then, in 1957, he was indicted on federal charges of bribery and perjury, and convicted of lying to a federal grand jury. Forced to leave the state Supreme Court and disbarred from practicing law, he became a pariah, sinking into depression and alcoholism. He virtually disappeared from public view. Lawrence M. Glazer re-examines the FBI's investigation of Swainson and delves into his 1975 trial in detail. He reveals new information from eye-witnesses who never testified and, in a poignant coda, relates the little-known story of Swainson's rehabilitation and return to public life as a historian.

Book excerpt: After the Americans withdrew from the Vietnam War, their Indochinese allies faced imprisonment, torture and death under communist regimes. The Tai Dam, an ethnic group from northern Vietnam, campaigned for sanctuary, writing letters to 30 U.S. governors in 1975. Only Robert D. Ray of Iowa agreed to help. Ray created an agency to relocate the Tai Dam, advocated for the greater admission of "boat people" fleeing Vietnam, launched a Cambodian relief program that generated $540,000, and lobbied for the Refugee Act of 1980. Interviews with 30+ refugees and officials inform this study, which also chronicles how the Tai Dam adapted to life in the Midwest and the Iowans' divided response.

Download or read book Indelible Ann written by Meghan P. Browne and published by Random House Studio. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A folksy, larger-than-life picture book biography about Ann Richards, the late governor of Texas who has inspired countless women in politics today. Dorothy Ann Willis hailed from a small Texas town, but early on she found her voice and the guts to use it. During her childhood in San Diego and her high school years back in Texas (when she dropped the "Dorothy"), Ann discovered a spark and passion for civic duty. It led her all the way to Washington, DC, where she, along with other girls from around the country, learned about the business of politics. Fast forward to Ann taking on the political boys' club: she became county commissioner, then state treasurer, and finally governor of Texas. In this stunning picture book biography, full of vim, vigor, and folksy charm, two Texan creators take us through the life of the legendary "big mouth, big hair" governor of Texas, a woman who was inspired by Eleanor Roosevelt, and in turn became an inspiration to Hillary Clinton and countless others.
