A pivotal figure in the state's history, Harris was considered by his contemporaries the person most responsible for leading Tennessee out of the Union and aligning it with the Confederacy during the Civil War. Harris rose to prominence in state politics in the late 1840s when he campaigned against the anti-slavery initiatives of northern Whigs. He was elected governor amidst rising sectional strife in the late 1850s, and following the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860, persistently sought to sever the state's ties with the Union. His war-time efforts eventually raised over 100,000 soldiers for the Confederate cause. After the Union Army gained control of Middle and West Tennessee in 1862, Harris spent the remainder of the war on the staffs of various Confederate generals. Following the war, he spent several years in exile in Mexico and England. After returning to Tennessee, Harris became a leader of the state's Bourbon Democrats. During his tenure in the U. S. Senate, he championed states' rights and currency expansion. As the Senate's president pro tempore in the 1890s, Harris led the charge against President Grover Cleveland's attempts to repeal the Sherman Silver Purchase Act. (en)

  • Isham Green Harris, född 10 februari 1818 i Franklin County, Tennessee, död 8 juli 1897 i Washington, D.C., var en amerikansk demokratisk politiker. Han var den 18:e guvernören i Tennessee 1857-1862. Tennessee utträdde ur USA under hans tid som guvernör och blev en av Amerikas konfedererade stater. Efter amerikanska inbördeskriget tillbringade han en tid i exil först i Mexiko, sedan i England. Harris var ledamot av USA:s senat från 1877 till sin död. Harris studerade juridik och inledde 1841 sin karriär som advokat i Tennessee. Han gifte sig 1843 med Martha Travis. Paret fick åtta barn. Harris representerade Tennessees 9:e distrikt i USA:s representanthus 1849-1853. Han valdes tre gånger till guvernör i Tennessee. När USA:s president Abraham Lincoln 1861 bad Harris om trupper till nordstaternas sida i inbördeskriget, vägrade guvernören att uppfylla presidentens önskan. I stället gick Tennessee med i kriget på sydstaternas sida. Efter utträdet ur USA i juni 1861 blev Tennessee 2 juli 1861 den sista staten som gick med i konfederationen. Tennessees huvudstad Nashville ockuperades 1862 av nordstaternas trupper och Lincoln utnämnde Andrew Johnson till militärguvernör. Harris upphörde sin verksamhet som guvernör och arbetade i stället som officer i den konfedererade staben fram till krigets slut. Efter sin landsflykt återvände han till Tennessee och arbetade som advokat i Memphis. Harris valdes fyra gånger till senaten. Han var senatens tillförordnade talman, president pro tempore of the United States Senate, 22 mars 1893 — 7 januari 1895 och på nytt från 10 januari till 3 mars 1895. Hans grav finns på Elmwood Cemetery i Memphis. (sv)
