Taylor, Zachary:

A REVIEW OF THE LIFE, CHARACTER AND POLITICAL OPINIONS OF ZACHARY TAYLOR.

Boston: Eastburn's Press, 1848. 16pp. Disbound and lightly worn, Good+.

This campaign biography of the Whigs' second [and last] successful presidential candidate emphasizes the "rare virtues" of the "brave old chief" that manifested themselves during his distinguished military career; and seeks to assure skittish Northern Whigs that Taylor, a Louisiana plantation owner, will not take an excessively southern stance on the slavery question.
