Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from History of Massachusetts Judge Minot continued the history of Massachusetts to the close of the year 1764, when the dispute began between Great Britain and the American colonies; which, after ten years, issued in an appeal to arms, in defence of civil liberty. And the great events of the revolutionary war have been ably and faithfully narrated. But the patriotic and persevering efforts of Massachusetts, for several years preceding the commencement of hostilities, have never been fully noticed. A correct statement of their zealous services in the cause of freedom seems necessary, injustice to their precious memory, and from a due regard to the present and future generations. They stated the natural rights of man, and the constitutional privileges of Englishmen, with a clearness and force, which confounded the apologists of arbitrary power, and silenced the unprincipled agents of a corrupt court. A new æra was established in political science. The foundation of civil liberty was, indeed, laid long before, in the principles recognized by Magna Charta. and at the revolution of 1689. But it was rendered immovable by the arguments and reasonings of Otis, Adams and others, in their defence of the rights of the British colonies: And all the political compacts, since framed in America, whether of this Commonwealth in 1780, or of the United States in 1788, are in conformity to the sentiments and maxims then advanced.
