Kennedy, John Pendleton

Born Oct. 25, 1795, in Baltimore; died Aug. 18, 1870, in Newport. American writer and public figure.

Kennedy was a supporter of the North in the Civil War of 1861–65. In the novel Swallow Barn (1832) he described the life of the Virginia planters in humorous terms. A romantic, he was influenced by W. Irving and J. F. Cooper, as evidenced in the historical novel Horse-Shoe Robinson (1835). In the novel Quodlibet (1840) he ridiculed American democracy from a conservative position.
