Daniel Webster: Defender of the Union
Daniel Webster was a farm boy who loved books. He became a lawyer, congressman, senator, and Secretary of State. He was also a strong Christian. In the halls of Congress he debated Henry Clay and John C. Calhoun. Before the Supreme Court he argued for freedom from government intrusion for little Dartmouth College.
Through every turn in his career, the silver-tongued orator took the same side of every political debate — the side of the United States of America.
