Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The World´s Greatest Conflict: Review of France and America 1788 to 1800, and History of America and Europe 1800 to 1804 The world´s greatest conflict is the struggle for and against good government. Our Revolution established independence, but it did not settle our government; that grand work was later. We had one State (Vermont) outside the Union, and thirteen commonwealths but loosely connected. They were not firmly united. Popular rule of a great combination of States with varying interests and habits was not yet accomplished. To do it properly demanded an invention - a new mechanism. The American system in which a clearly expressed Constitution, interpreted by an independent judiciary, defines, limits and overrules all executive power and all legislation, prevents aggression by or against the Government, and guarantees the rights of every person, however humble, is the greatest of all inventions; the grandest achievement of human intellect. Republics had already existed; they are of ancient origin - even steam and steam machinery existed before James Watt. But those old republics compare with the modern system now used in both Americas, Great Britain, France, Australia and Switzerland, as does the rude steamboat of Blasco de Garey of blessed memory with that great Inman steamer, the City of New York.
