Henry Clay is often called the "Great Compromiser" in American history. He worked tirelessly to avoid the Civil War and separation. President Lincoln greatly admired him, read his speeches and oft quoted him. We spent a weekend studying his great writings, and a terrific Henry Clay reenactor joined us for dinner but I'm unable to find those pictures just yet. His home is wonderful, but, unfortunately, pictures are not allowed inside.
