''State Of The Union Addresses'' is a collection of speeches delivered by Ulysses S. Grant during his presidency, covering the years 1869 to 1876. These speeches were given annually to Congress and the American people, outlining the current state of the nation and the president’s plans for the future. Grant’s speeches cover a wide range of topics, including the economy, foreign relations, civil rights, and the ongoing Reconstruction of the South after the Civil War. This book provides valuable insight into the political and social issues of the time, as well as Grant’s leadership style and priorities as president.The freedmen, under the protection which they have received, are making rapid progress in learning, and no complaints are heard of lack of industry on their part where they receive fair remuneration for their labor. The means provided for paying the interest on the public debt, with all other expenses of Government, are more than ample. The loss of our commerce is the only result of the late rebellion which has not received sufficient attention from you. To this subject I call your earnest attention. I will not now suggest plans by which this object may be effected, but will, if necessary, make it the subject of a special message during the session of Congress.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
