Is Davis a Traitor (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the heated debate surrounding secession in the United States, a topic that would ultimately lead to the Civil War. The author delves into the historical and legal arguments for and against the right of states to leave the Union, focusing on the contentious claim that the Constitution was a compact between sovereign states. A significant portion of the book is dedicated to refuting the prominent Northern view that the Constitution was not a compact, but rather a fundamental law established by the people of the United States as a single nation. The author engages directly with the arguments of Daniel Webster, a leading figure in the debate, and dissects his claims regarding the meaning of the Constitution and the language used to define it. By analyzing primary sources and historical records, the book challenges the notion that the South was inherently disloyal or treasonous in its desire to secede, instead advocating for a deeper understanding of the political and legal complexities that led to this momentous conflict. The book offers a powerful and nuanced perspective on the origins of the Civil War, challenging conventional narratives and urging readers to reconsider the historical context and the arguments surrounding the right of secession. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330443798_0
