Benjamin Harrison, the 23rd President of the United States, is often recalled for his considerable contributions to the landscape of American politics rather than for literary prowess. Born on August 20, 1833, in North Bend, Ohio, Harrison hailed from a prominent political family; his grandfather, William Henry Harrison, was the ninth President of the United States. Before ascending to the presidency, Harrison established himself as a lawyer and served as a Union officer during the Civil War. His subsequent political career was marked by his strong advocacies for civil service reform and veterans” rights. Although not traditionally an author, one of his lasting legacies in written form is his “First State of the Union Address, ” delivered on December 3, 1889. This address outlines the policy goals and visions of his administration, reflecting the concerns and aspirations of the Gilded Age in which he served. Characterized by its formality and attention to the statecraft of his era, the speech is a noteworthy historical document rather than a work of literary expression. As such, while Harrison”s contributions to American history are well-noted, he is less distinguished for a literary style or a body of written work like a traditional author.
