The Senator From Missouri: The Life And Times Of Francis Marion Cockrell is a comprehensive biography of the titular senator, written by his grandson, Francis Marion Cockrell II. The book covers the life and career of Francis Marion Cockrell, who served as a United States senator from Missouri for over 30 years, from 1875 to 1905. The book begins with a brief overview of Cockrell's early life, including his upbringing in Warrensburg, Missouri, and his service in the Confederate Army during the Civil War. It then goes on to detail Cockrell's political career, including his election to the Missouri state legislature in 1868, his service in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1873 to 1875, and his long tenure in the U.S. Senate.Throughout the book, Cockrell II provides a detailed look at Cockrell's political views and accomplishments, including his work on issues such as civil service reform, tariff reform, and the regulation of railroads. The book also covers Cockrell's personal life, including his marriage, his family, and his hobbies and interests.Overall, The Senator From Missouri: The Life And Times Of Francis Marion Cockrell is a well-researched and engaging biography of a prominent figure in Missouri and national politics during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
