Millard Fillmore began his presidency on July 10, 1850,
immediately passing the Fugitive Slave Act, and forever damaging
his political career. Abolitionists and antislavery politicians
were appalled and in 1852 Fillmore was denied nomination for a
second term. Four years later he campaigned again for the
presidency to no avail. As the decade came to an end, Millard
Fillmore was no more than an obscure name in history. Today,
historians are finding new interest in Fillmore and his politics on
slavery. Many believed he tolerated injustice for what he perceived
was the greater good. In this comprehensive bibliography, students
will find citations and sources for information on Millard
Fillmore's childhood and personal life, presidency and
post-presidential career. Students can easily access specific
information through the table of contents and author and subject
indexes.
