Item description from seller

16pp, stitched, light wear, Very Good. Addressed to Governor John Andrew, by "A Jacksonian Democrat." Sennott pulls no punches, telling Andrew, "The war broke out, and, under the grateful warmth of popular adulation, the character of your Excellency uncoiled itself like a rattlesnake in the spring. You began by taking credit to yourself for everything to which credit could possibly attach." According to Andrew, he saved "the Capital, the Government, and the country" all by himself, meanwhile enriching himself and friends with government contracts. Sennott defends Butler from Andrew's attacks with an unrestrained enthusiasm that matches his denunciation of Andrew. FIRST EDITION. Sabin 79137. Not in Bartlett.
