1811 1872 Advised Greeley Horace Hornet Journalist


EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Horace Greeley, an American statesman and journalist who became a iconic figure in the mid-19th century. Born on February 3, 1811, in Amherst, New Hampshire, Greeley is best known for his famous advice to young men: "Go West, young man." This phrase, which appeared in an editorial in the New-York Tribune, encouraged young people to seek opportunities and adventure in the Western territories of the United States. Greeley's influence on American history extended far beyond this catchy phrase. He was a vocal advocate for abolitionism, women's suffrage, and labor rights. Greeley's newspaper, the New-York Tribune, was one of the most influential in the country during his tenure as editor. In 1872, at the age of 61, Greeley ran for President of the United States on the Liberal Republican Party ticket. Although he lost the election, his campaign brought important issues to the forefront of national discourse. This photograph of Horace Greeley, taken in the late 1800s, captures the journalist in his later years. With his piercing gaze and expressive face, Greeley's determination and passion for justice are palpable. The photograph serves as a reminder of his significant impact on American history and the enduring legacy of his words. Horace Greeley's life and career are a testament to the power of the written word and the importance of standing up for one's beliefs. His advice to "Go West, young man" continues to resonate with generations, inspiring individuals to seek new opportunities and challenges. This photograph is a valuable historical artifact that offers a glimpse into the life of an American icon and the era in which he lived.
