Excerpt from James Knox Polk, and a History of His Administration: Embracing the Annexation of Texas, the Difficulties With Mexico, the Settlement of the Oregon Question, and Other Important Events
The life of any American President, I feel confident, would not need to be specially commended to the attention of his countrymen, - and certainly not that of James K. Polk, - for whatever may be the opinions entertained in regard to the administration of which he was the head, it must be conceded that great and important measures were submitted to their consideration and action, and that interests of the deepest magnitude were confided to their hands.
