About this product

Product Information

Charles Pinckney (1757-1824) was born into one of South Carolina's most prominent families and quickly became one of the state's most influential figures. Born in Charleston, Pinckney grew up there and on his father's plantations in the Carolina lowcountry. He served in the state militia during the American Revolution and was captured at the surrender of Charleston in 1780. Later he attended the Confederation Congress in 1784. But he is best known for his representation of the Palmetto State at the Constitutional Convention in 1787, where he presented one of the few complete drafts of government for the new nation. The Pinckney Draft of the Constitution would play an integral part in the controversy that swirled around him, giving Pinckney's political enemies ammunition for their charges of arrogance and vanity, and perplexing historians for nearly a century. broke with his family - most of whom were staunch Federalists - to support the Democratic-Republican Thomas Jefferson in the pivotal election of 1800. Pinckney's efforts on Jefferson's behalf helped propel the Virginian into the presidency and changed the course of American political history. As a reward, Pinckney was named minister to Spain, where he served until 1806 before returning home and to state and to national politics. Soon after suffering financial ruin in his personal life, Pinckney was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives and served during the Missouri Controversy of 1820. Pinckney's impassioned speeches in Congress helped lay the groundwork for the states rights ideology that eventually would dominate South Carolina and her southern neighbors, leading them to rebellion and civil war in 1861. as James Madison and even by other members of the Pinckney family. In Forgotten Founder, Marty D. Matthews addresses the reasons for such oversights and examines Pinckney's many important contributions to the founding of the American republic.
