| Summary | "A Compilation of the Messages and Papers of the Presidents. Volume 6, part 1" by James D. Richardson is a historical collection published in the early 20th century that reflects on the pivotal era of the American Civil War. This volume covers the presidential messages and papers from March 1861 to March 1869, encapsulating the leadership of Presidents Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson. The text is aimed at providing insight into the critical events and decisions during this tumultuous time in U.S. history, including Lincoln's administration during the Civil War and Johnson's efforts in the post-war era. The opening of this work establishes a framework for understanding the severe challenges faced by the nation, highlighting Lincoln's leadership amid the Civil War's crises and Johnson's reconstruction policies. The preface emphasizes the significance of the documents compiled in this volume, such as Lincoln's unparalleled wartime speeches and Johnson's critical political maneuvers, particularly surrounding the impeachment process. The text suggests a belief in the profound influence these papers have on shaping national sentiment and promotes a greater understanding of American unity and governance. Overall, the beginning lays the groundwork for a detailed exploration of presidential exhortations that call for national perseverance and unity during a time of existential threat.
