by George Fort Milton (Author)
"The Age of Hate: Andrew Johnson and the Radicals" is an extensive historical examination of one of the most tumultuous periods in American history: the Reconstruction era following the Civil War. George Fort Milton provides a detailed narrative of the presidency of Andrew Johnson, focusing on his bitter and escalating struggle with the Radical Republicans in Congress. The work delves into the political landscape of the 1860s, exploring the deep-seated divisions that characterized the nation's attempt to reunite and the intense personal and political animosities that led to the first impeachment of an American president.
By analyzing the motivations and actions of key historical figures, Milton illustrates the complex challenges of restoring the Union and the conflicting visions for the future of the South. This volume offers a profound look at the "Age of Hate," capturing the spirit of a time defined by partisan strife, social upheaval, and the difficult transition from war to peace. It remains a significant resource for readers interested in the American presidency, constitutional history, and the long-lasting impact of the Reconstruction era on the United States.
