Omschrijving

""A Letter to a Whig Member of the Southern Independence Association"" is a political treatise written by Goldwin Smith in 1864. The book is a response to a letter from a member of the Southern Independence Association, a group advocating for the secession of Southern states from the United States during the American Civil War. In the letter, Smith argues against the idea of secession and defends the Union as a necessary and beneficial institution. He also critiques the Southern arguments for secession, including their reliance on states' rights and their defense of slavery. Throughout the book, Smith draws on historical examples and political theory to support his arguments. He also addresses the role of Britain in the conflict, arguing that the country should remain neutral and not support the Confederacy. Overall, ""A Letter to a Whig Member of the Southern Independence Association"" is a thoughtful and well-reasoned defense of the Union and a critique of the arguments for secession. It provides valuable insights into the political debates of the time and the reasons behind the Civil War.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
