The Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center Hayes knew that visiting statesmen, including William E. Chandler and Charles B. Farwell (a wealthy Chicago merchant and "the ablest politician and wisest coolest head in Illinois"), were not fastidious in their methods, and he did not want to be -or appear to be-the recipient of stolen goods. Telling Hayes of the "atrocious means" used to prevent black Republicans from voting, Sherman assured him that he would have the vote of Louisiana, according to the letter and spirit of its laws. Hayes and the Republicans were reluctant to abandon Gov. Stephen B. Packard of Louisiana and Gov. Daniel H. Chamberlain of South Carolina, who were risking their lives to keep their states Republican and to elect Hayes. www.rbhayes.org /dispute.htm   (7629 words)

Amazon.ca: Customer Reviews Books: Major General John Alexander McClernand: Politician in Uniform John McClernand's nemeses included Generals Ulysses Grant and William Tecumseh Sherman, Secretary of War Edwin Stanton and, most notably, John McClernand himself. While he used his political clout to organize, train and equip the soldiers of his brigade, McClernand's tendency to be self-serving and critical of his superiors (to their superiors!) ultimately outweighed his usefulness and hastened his relief by Grant. In spite of an abject lack of military training and experience, McClernand did perform remarkably well while preparing troops for combat and while leading them in the field. amazon.ca /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/books/0873386361/customer-reviews   (616 words)

Major General John Alexander McClernand: Politician in Uniform   Consequently, the prevailing image of McClernand in Civil War history is of a man who was simply one of the many substantial obstacles Grant and Sherman overcame as they rose to become the architects of Union victory. Unlike McClernand, Orlando Bolivar Willcox was one of those generals who inspired little controversy during his lifetime. Nonetheless, Kiper makes a strong case that in spite of his personal faults, McClernand deserved better from his colleagues in the Army of the Tennessee high command and historians. www.hcwwt.org /archive/mcclernand.htm   (616 words)

CWN Book Reviews John F. Marszalek is pro-fes-sor of history, Mississippi State University, and author or editor of eight books in-clud-ing Court Martial: A Black Man in American (1972); The Diary of Miss Emma Holmes, 18611865 (1979); and Sherman: A Soldier's Passion for Order (1993). Kiper believes that there was West Point officer jeal-ousy toward McClernand, the politician turned soldier, and this attitude affected military relationships. McClernand’s tepid per-formance at Champion Hill, Kiper believes, was partially the result of Grant’s many telegrams urging caution. www.civilwarnews.com /reviews/bookreviews.cfm?ID=81   (616 words)
