Henry Clay (12 avr. 1777 – 29 juin 1852)
Description:
He is best remembered for his attempts to bring about peace—or compromises-between two opposing groups. He negotiated the treaty with Great Britain that ended the War of 1812. He helped produce the Missouri Compromise (1820), which kept the delicate balance of power between slave and free states.
