Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Liberty and Free Soil Parties in the Northwest, Vol. 6: Toppan Prize Essay of 1896 The history of the anti-slavery controversy in Congress and in national politics is the subject of a vast and increasing number of writings ranging from monographs to large volumes, but the local history of this great struggle has received little or no attention. Believing, with many students of recent years, that national and State politics are too closely related, logically to admit of such absolute separation, I have endeavored in this monograph, by a study of the political anti-slavery parties in the Old Northwest, to work out the local history of that great movement in a region of which the importance in our national development has not always been adequately recognized. Combined with this main object - and in my mind scarcely less important - has been the effort to add to the knowledge of the growth of the American party system. This work has occupied much of my time during three years spent in the Seminary of American History and Institutions of Harvard University, and one year in the University of Wisconsin.
