Memorial Addresses

Bol

"Memorial Addresses" is a poignant collection of eulogies and tributes delivered in the United States Congress to honor the life and legacy of Woodbridge N. Ferris. A prominent figure in American public life, Ferris served as both the Governor of Michigan and a United States Senator, leaving an indelible mark on the political and educational landscape of the early 20th century. The volume captures the formal speeches given by his colleagues in both the Senate and the House of Representatives, offering a comprehensive look at his character, his unwavering commitment to education, and his distinguished service to his country. As the founder of Ferris Institute (now Ferris State University), his contributions to higher education are celebrated alongside his legislative achievements. This work serves as a significant historical record, providing insight into the political discourse of the 1920s and the high esteem in which Ferris was held by his contemporaries. Readers interested in Michigan history, American political biography, and the traditions of congressional memorials will find this collection an invaluable resource for understanding the life of a dedicated public servant.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
