John Chambers was the second governor of the Territory of Iowa and vocal in his desire to end economic abuses of the Native Americans in the region by the new immigrants, possibly a refrain to a song learned in his Irish childhood; nonetheless it was his task to negotiate treaties with resident and neighboring tribes, making for a surprisingly suspenseful character narrative. Also includes some autobiographical writing by Gov. Chambers.; Iowa Biographical Series Series.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive biography of John Chambers, the second Governor of the Territory of Iowa. It explores his life from his family's arrival in Kentucky in the late 18th century to his years in Iowa, where he played a pivotal role in shaping the territory's early history. The author draws on extensive research, including unpublished manuscripts, letters, and newspapers, to provide a detailed and engaging account of Chambers's personal and professional life. The book highlights Chambers's legal career in Kentucky, his military service during the War of 1812, his work as a state legislator, and his successful campaign for the governorship of the Iowa Territory. Through the lens of Chambers's life, the author offers insights into the political, economic, and social transformation of the American West during the early 19th century. This book is a valuable contribution to the history of Iowa and the broader study of the American frontier.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Query? How is it possible to have a 1909 book in new condition? Answer: The book was carefully stored in its original box for over a century, never opened. When acquired by this bookseller the book was lacking the original onion-skin dust jacket and therefore was immediately placed in an archival quality clear Brodart cover. The covers of the book are bright red with sharp gilt lettering and the gilt emblem of the State Historical Society of Iowa on the spine and the front cover. Top of the pages are gilt, and bottom and outer edge of the pages are deckled. 279 pages, including notes and references and an index. Opposite the title page is a portrait of John Chambers from an oil portrait behind a frontispiece that is near perfect. Book is new, never used, nor read and some pages are not separated. For a condition conscious buyer of early American biographies, this is minervia. An original work in this condition, instead of a reprint. A no-brainer! Available for immediate shipment, carefully packed in a sturdy box.…
