EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print transports us back in time to the quaint town of Hillsboro, New Hampshire, in the year 1852. The scene before us marks a significant historical landmark - the humble birthplace of one of America's most esteemed military leaders, General Frank Pierce. Born on November 23, 1814, in this unassuming farmhouse, Frank Pierce would go on to make an indelible mark on the 19th century American history. Raised in a family of modest means, Pierce's early years were spent working on the family farm. However, his thirst for knowledge and a desire to serve his country led him to attend Dartmouth College and later, the United States Military Academy at West Point. As the Civil War loomed on the horizon, Pierce distinguished himself as a brave and capable commander. He led his troops with unwavering determination and strategic acumen, earning the respect and admiration of his men. Pierce's most notable achievements include his leadership during the Second Battle of Bull Run and the Battle of Antietam. After the war, Pierce continued to serve his country in various capacities, including as the United States Minister to Italy and as a member of the United States Senate. His legacy as a military hero and statesman endures to this day. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the simple beginnings of a man who would rise to great heights and leave an indelible mark on American history. The quiet town of Hillsboro, New Hampshire, and the humble farmhouse where Pierce was born, stand as testament to the limitless potential that lies within us all.
