Summary "A Compilation of the Messages and Papers of the Presidents, Volume 9" by James D. Richardson is a historical compilation published in the early 20th century. This volume features the presidential papers and messages from Benjamin Harrison and Grover Cleveland during their terms, including the inaugural address, key proclamations, and other significant communications. It serves as a valuable resource for understanding the political landscape of the United States during this particular era in its history. The opening portion of the volume begins with a prefatory note by the compiler, James D. Richardson, detailing the challenges faced in gathering all relevant presidential documents, and expresses his commitment to a thorough compilation. The narrative then transitions into the biography of Benjamin Harrison, providing insights into his early life, education, career, and key moments leading up to his presidency. This section is rich in historical context, outlining Harrison's significant engagements during the Civil War and his rise in political prominence, ultimately leading to his inauguration and the challenges he faced as the 23rd President of the United States. The text establishes a foundation for the more detailed messages and papers that will follow throughout the volume. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
