Introduction An imaginative literary classic by Nathaniel Hawthorne that is sophisticated in a manner that more recent works are not. Life of Franklin Pierce by American author Nathaniel Hawthorne is a book of literary fiction first published in 1852 in the US. A true book of worth, a celebrated classic that lives in an era of timeless distinction. You will not be dissatisfied with this work, literature at its finest. Quote "Pierce’s class was small, but composed of individuals seriously intent on the duties and studies of their college life. They were not boys, but, for the most part, well advanced towards maturity; and, having wrought out their own means of education, were little inclined to neglect the opportunities that had been won at so much cost." Synopsis Franklin Pierce, a Democrat, served as President from 1853 to 1857. Hawthorne, who was a personal friend of Pierce, wrote the biography as a campaign biography during Pierce's run for the presidency. The book explores Pierce's early life, his military service, and his political career, providing insights into the political climate of the time. While the biography reflects Hawthorne's admiration for Pierce, it also delves into the challenges and controversies of Pierce's presidency, including issues related to slavery and the sectional tensions that would ultimately lead to the American Civil War. In summary, "Life of Franklin Pierce" offers a literary perspective on the life and times of Franklin Pierce, providing historical and political context for readers interested in mid-19th century America.
