Summary: "Portrait and Biography of Parson Brownlow, The Tennessee Patriot" by Brownlow is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The work focuses on the life of William G. Brownlow, a prominent figure in Tennessee known for his staunch support of the Union during the Civil War, his editorial work, and his resilience in the face of persecution. This biography illustrates his experiences with secession, his imprisonment, and his ultimate dedication to the principles of loyalty and patriotism. At the start of the biography, readers are introduced to Parson Brownlow's background, childhood, and early years as a Methodist preacher. It details his rise as a political figure and editor of the Knoxville "Whig", where he became a vocal critic of the Confederacy during a time of immense regional turmoil. The opening portion highlights his arrest by Confederate authorities for his outspoken Unionist views and illustrates his refusal to capitulate to threats of violence and imprisonment. Brownlow’s indomitable spirit and commitment to the Union cause set the tone for a narrative centered around themes of loyalty, freedom of the press, and the personal sacrifices made in pursuit of justice during a deeply divisive period in American history.
