A millworker, Banks became prominent in local debating societies and entered politics as a young adult. Initially a member of the <a href="/wiki/Democratic_Party_(United_States)" title="Democratic Party (United States)">Democratic Party</a>, Banks's abolitionist views drew him to the nascent <a href="/wiki/Republican_Party_(United_States)" title="Republican Party (United States)">Republican Party</a>, through which he won election to the <a href="/wiki/United_States_House_of_Representatives" title="United States House of Representatives">United States House of Representatives</a> and as <a href="/wiki/Governor_of_Massachusetts" title="Governor of Massachusetts">Governor of Massachusetts</a> in the 1850s. At the start of the <a href="/wiki/34th_United_States_Congress" title="34th United States Congress">34th Congress</a>, he was elected <a href="/wiki/Speaker_of_the_United_States_House_of_Representatives" title="Speaker of the United States House of Representatives">Speaker of the House</a> in <a href="/wiki/1855%E2%80%9356_Speaker_of_the_United_States_House_of_Representatives_election" title="1855–56 Speaker of the United States House of Representatives election">an election</a> that spanned a record 133 ballots taken over the course of two months. </p><p>At the outbreak of the Civil War, <a href="/wiki/Abraham_Lincoln" title="Abraham Lincoln">Abraham Lincoln</a> appointed Banks as one of the first <a href="/wiki/Political_major_generals" class="mw-redirect" title="Political major generals">political major generals</a>, over the heads of <a href="/wiki/United_States_Military_Academy" title="United States Military Academy">West Point</a> regulars, who initially resented him, but came to acknowledge his influence on the administration of the war. After suffering a series of inglorious setbacks in the <a href="/wiki/Shenandoah_River" title="Shenandoah River">Shenandoah River</a> Valley at the hands of <a href="/wiki/Stonewall_Jackson" title="Stonewall Jackson">Stonewall Jackson</a>, Banks replaced <a href="/wiki/Benjamin_Butler_(politician)" class="mw-redirect" title="Benjamin Butler (politician)">Benjamin Butler</a> at <a href="/wiki/New_Orleans" title="New Orleans">New Orleans</a> as commander of the <a href="/wiki/Department_of_the_Gulf" title="Department of the Gulf">Department of the Gulf</a>, charged with the administration of <a href="/wiki/Louisiana" title="Louisiana">Louisiana</a> and gaining control of the <a href="/wiki/Mississippi_River" title="Mississippi River">Mississippi River</a>. He failed to reinforce <a href="/wiki/Ulysses_S._Grant" title="Ulysses S. Grant">Grant</a> at <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Vicksburg" class="mw-redirect" title="Battle of Vicksburg">Vicksburg</a>, and badly handled the <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Port_Hudson" title="Siege of Port Hudson">Siege of Port Hudson</a>, taking its surrender only after Vicksburg had fallen. He then launched the <a href="/wiki/Red_River_Campaign" class="mw-redirect" title="Red River Campaign">Red River Campaign</a>, a failed attempt to occupy northern Louisiana and eastern <a href="/wiki/Texas" title="Texas">Texas</a> that prompted his recall. Banks was regularly criticized for the failures of his campaigns, notably in tactically important tasks, including reconnaissance. Banks was also instrumental in early reconstruction efforts in Louisiana, intended by Lincoln as a model for later such activities. </p><p>After the war, Banks returned to the Massachusetts political scene, serving in Congress, where he supported <a href="/wiki/Manifest_Destiny" class="mw-redirect" title="Manifest Destiny">Manifest Destiny</a>, influenced the <a href="/wiki/Alaska_Purchase" title="Alaska Purchase">Alaska Purchase</a> legislation, and supported women's suffrage.
