Produktinformationen "George Graham Vest"
Although the saying "Dog is man's best friend," is well known, the man who originally coined the phrase is less celebrated in modern times. However, in the late 1800s, George Graham Vest was a distinguished attorney and politician widely admired for his skills in oration and debate. George Graham Vest--The Life and Times of Dog's Best Friend provides a detailed look at Vest, who was born and raised in Frankfort, Kentucky but later practiced law in central Missouri, serving the "Show Me State" in the Missouri House of Representatives, the Confederate Congress, the Confederate Senate, and later the U.S. Senate, with more than 30 years in public office. Vest was known as a champion for the rights of Native Americans, helped establish Yellowstone National Park, and was called a man of genius by his contemporaries whose skill in debate was never equaled. Written by Stephen M. Vest, a descendant who is also known for his command of the English language, George Graham Vest--The Life and Times of Dog's Best Friend is a fitting biography to one of America's best statesmen, long overdue.
