""James Jackson: Duelist And Militant Statesman, 1757-1806"" is a biography written by William Omer Foster. The book covers the life of James Jackson, who was a prominent figure in American politics during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Jackson was born in Georgia in 1757 and served in the American Revolution as a soldier and later as a militia officer. He was also involved in several duels, which were common in the South at the time. After the war, Jackson became involved in politics and was elected to the Georgia State Legislature. He later served in the Continental Congress and was a delegate to the Constitutional Convention. Jackson was a strong advocate for states' rights and was opposed to a strong central government. He also played a key role in Georgia's ratification of the Constitution. Throughout his political career, Jackson was known for his strong personality and his willingness to fight for what he believed in. He was involved in several political battles, including a bitter feud with fellow Georgian and future President, James Madison. The book provides a detailed look at Jackson's life and his contributions to American politics. It also explores the social and political climate of the time, including the debate over states' rights and the role of the federal government. Overall, ""James Jackson: Duelist And Militant Statesman, 1757-1806"" is a fascinating biography of a complex and influential figure in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

In this trenchant work, James Barrett traces the political journey of a leading worker radical whose life and experiences encapsulate radicalism's rise and fall in the United States. A self-educated wage earner raised in the slums of a large industrial city, William Z. Foster became a brilliant union organizer who helped build the American Federation of Labor and, later, radical Trade Union Educational League. Embracing socialism, syndicalism, and communism in turn, Foster rose through the ranks of the American Communist Party to stand at the forefront of labor politics throughout the 1920s. Yet by the time he died in 1961, in a Moscow hospital far from the meat-packing plants and steel mills where he had built his reputation, Foster's political marginalism stood as a symbol for the isolation of American labor radicalism in the postwar era. Integrating both the indigenous and the international factors that determined the fate of American communism, William Z. Foster and the Tragedy of American Radicalism provides a new understanding of the basis for radicalism among twentieth-century American workers.

Published in 1960, this biography examines the life of James Jackson, a general in the Revolutionary War and later governor, congressman, and senator to Georgia. Jackson advocated strict construction of the Constitution, states' rights, and the welfare of the common man. He was a dominant figure in the affairs of Georgia during the last decade of his life and was at the center of the Yazoo controversy, where he worked for the repeal of the land sales. Foster's portrayal shows Jackson as a strong personality with a fiery disposition who played an important role in the history of the state.
