The United States president preserves, protects, and defends the U.S. Constitution. Each president's term influences events in America and around the world for years to come. This biography introduces young readers to the life of Benjamin Harrison, beginning with his childhood in North Bend, Ohio. Information about Harrison's education at Miami University, as well as his early career as a lawyer and a court crier is discussed. In addition, his family and personal life, as well as his retirement years in Indiana, during which he wrote This Country of Ours and Views of an Ex-President, is highlighted. Easy-to-read text details Harrison's military service in the Seventieth Indiana Volunteer Regiment during the American Civil War, and his political career as city attorney of Indianapolis, Indiana, reporter of the Indiana Supreme Court, and governor of Indiana, as well as on the Mississippi River Commission and in the U.S. Senate, where he spoke out against the Chinese Exclusion Act.
