Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of the Rebellion: Its Authors and Causes The present Rebellion is the first in the annals of mankind, where a people have risen in arms against liberty for the purpose of establishing a despotism. With its remote and proximate causes the people should be familiar; its authors and abettors should be known to the present and coming generations. In the long struggle which preceded actual secession, the writer participated. It was his fortune to enunciate the policy of separating the people of the free States and the federal power from the support of slavery, leaving that institution entirely with the States, where it had been left by the patriots who framed the charter of our Union. Messrs. Adams, Slade, and Gates, then members of Congress, sustained the policy; others subsequently united with us; we were opposed not by reason, or argument, or justice, but by personal detraction, misrepresentation, insult, threats of violence, and denunciation. The contest was earnest and protracted. For more than twenty years the author mingled in scenes of unusual interest.
