About this book
Wheatland, the Pennsylvania home bought in 1848, begins the second volume of George Ticknor Curtis's biography of James Buchanan, which takes in the presidential contests of 1848 and 1852, Lincoln's election and South Carolina's secession. Chapters follow Buchanan's mission to England, with the Clayton-Bulwer Treaty, the Crimean War and the Ostend Conference, then his 1856 election and term as President, including Kansas, the Covode investigation and the visit of the Prince of Wales. His letters to his niece, Miss Lane, run through the volume, which was published by Harper & Brothers in New York.
