Henry Clay: The great American statesman you should know more about (2016)

You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / Henry Clay: The great American statesman you should know more about (2016)
Published: December 11, 2016 by VPR Producer
Portrait by Matthew Harris Jouett, 1818. The “canonical early image of Clay” (Papers of Henry Clay, Volume 1, p. 310) [source].

Most of us have heard the name of Henry Clay, but he’s not one of the people we usually remember the way we do George Washington or Thomas Jefferson. Our guest says that Clay was just as important to our nation as the founding fathers, and he discusses the great contributions this Speaker of the House made to keep our country together, fight for justice, and create the foundations of our extensive modern U.S. transportation system.


Guest Information:

  • Harlow Giles Unger, author of Henry Clay: America’s Greatest Statesman and contributor to The Huffington Post
