This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Constitutional and Political History of the United States, Vol. 4 I believe that in this volume I have made a not entirely unimportant contribution to the proof of the allegation made above, aproof which it is my firm conviction will yet be furnished by the investigation of the history of slavery - I deliberately say slaverv and not slavery ques tion - in such a shape as to put it forever beyond the possibility of dispute. In my opinion, the volume could become such a contribution, only provided I discussed this period with an exhaustiveness which, spite of my endeavors to treat only of that which is indispensable to the un derstanding of the subject in hand, may weary many readers. This minute and critical entering into details was all the more necessary, since this period has, in many respects - especiallv as regards the finality question and know-nothmg1s1n - partly because of its unrefreshing character and partly because of the tangled and intricate nature of its history - been, in a special degree neglected not only by investigators, but even by party writers. It was, therefore, even more imperative than in the previous volumes, soqfar as space at all permitted, to prove my po'sition fioiiittlie O1iginal souices, ve1batim.othe1wise.

Book Synopsis A Patriot's History of the United States by : Larry Schweikart
Download or read book A Patriot's History of the United States written by Larry Schweikart and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2004-12-29 with total page 1350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past three decades, many history professors have allowed their biases to distort the way America’s past is taught. These intellectuals have searched for instances of racism, sexism, and bigotry in our history while downplaying the greatness of America’s patriots and the achievements of “dead white men.” As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington; more about the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II than about D-Day or Iwo Jima; more on the dangers we faced from Joseph McCarthy than those we faced from Josef Stalin. A Patriot’s History of the United States corrects those doctrinaire biases. In this groundbreaking book, America’s discovery, founding, and development are reexamined with an appreciation for the elements of public virtue, personal liberty, and private property that make this nation uniquely successful. This book offers a long-overdue acknowledgment of America’s true and proud history.

Download or read book The Tenth Decade of the United States, Vol. 4 written by William Garrott Brown and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-02-02 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tenth Decade of the United States, Vol. 4: Lincoln's Policy of Mercy Congress, although extremists in both houses were actually proposing to abol ish slavery everywhere by ordinary stat ute, would not appropriate the money to compensate the owners. When it be came plainly necessary to decide at once the fate of the fast increasing number of negroes delivered from slavery by the pro gress of the Union arms, Lincoln there fore turned reluctantly away from the hope which for a hundred years the wisest Americans had cherished. Still firmly of the opinion that neither he nor Con gress had any right to interfere with the domestic institutions of states, save only in the prosecution of the war, he made up his mind, after much thought, that emancipation could reasonably be con sidered a necessary and proper means to the supreme end of saving the Union. He accordingly decreed emancipation in those states and parts of states which on January 1, 1863, were still in insurrection against the government. He plainly stated his opinion both that the act was military, and that he could not if he would have thrown upon Congress any part of the responsibility for it. Few momentous deeds have ever been done so cautiously; yet few have been braver. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Reunion and Reaction by : C. Vann Woodward
Download or read book Reunion and Reaction written by C. Vann Woodward and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1991-03-28 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the era of America's landmark antebellum compromises and that of the Compromise of 1877, a war had intervened, destroying the integrity of the Southern system but failing to determine the New South's relation to the Union. While it did not restore the old order in the South, or restore the South to parity with the Union, it did lay down the political foundations for reunion, bring Reconstruction to an end, and shape the future of four million freedmen. Originally published in 1951, this classic work by one of America's foremost experts on Southern history presents an important new interpretation of the Compromise, forcing historians to revise previous attitudes towards the Reconstruction period, the history of the Republican party, and the realignment of forces that fought the Civil War. Because much of the negotiating occurred in secrecy, historians have known less about this Compromise than others before it. Now reissued with a new introduction by Woodward, Reunion and Reaction gives us the other half of the story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The United States Review, 1855, Vol. 4: Democracy This degrading subserviency of so lar a portion of the Whig press to British dictation, and this fileterious influence over the opinions of so many of those who have so powerful an agency in 'ving a direction to the public sentxment in communities w ere they reside, constitute one of the great obstacles to a good understanding between the Us ited States and Great Britain. The latter invariabl mistakes the festations of this anglo-american ress or the prevailing sen timent of the people of the Uni States, and is thus encour aged to pursue a hostile course of olicy, which ultimately ends in a serious misunderstanding, not in actual war. The ministers of England seem not yet to have discovered that these straws do not even show which way the wind blows, and that such weather-cocks are only unerring guides in pointin g out its exactly opposite direction. It was well known at the time, that the British ambassador, incited by the lan age of the Federal newspapers and the dreams of t e Federa leaders at Washington, actually wrote home to his government, the very day before the adoption of the declaration of war by the Senate of the United States, the positive assurance that th ere was not the slightest danger that such a preposition would be sanctioned by that bod In this way the British ministry are uniformly deceived. T ey mistake the clamors of a minority for the voice of a majority of the e0ple of the United States, and under the influence of this de usion believe they may not only safely persevere in any course of policy injurious to their interests or their honor, but offer new aggravations with per feet impunity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from White, Red, Black, Vol. 1 of 2: Sketches of American Society in the United States During the Visit of Their Guests In regard to graver matters, I do not evade any question, though slavery, for instance, is a point on which it is dificult to write without giving offence on one or the other side of the Atlantic. The English are so proud that already nearly a whole score of years back they have ceased to be slave - holders, that they overlook the difficulties with which this question is connected in the Union, whilst the Americans in the south are so touchy in regard to the sovereignty of their States, that they call even the modest publi cations of a tourist a foreign intervention Into their domestic concerns, and by the very fact excite the resentment of those who feel no sympathy with their peculiar institution. I give my opinion openly, without seeking to ingratiate myself with any party. In the same way I attempted to describe the large con tending political parties and their subdivisions, and the different aspect of society in the four great portions of the Union, faith fully and conscientiously. We met friends amongst all the sec tions of the United States. I was convinced of the earnestness and sincerity of all the parties, and I give their principles without attempting to decide which of them is more conducive to the weal of the country. As far as I venture to form an opinion, it is, that the extinction of either of these great parties would be a national calamity. Though I accompanied Kossuth on his journey though the different States of the Union, he is in no way and in no point responsible for any of the views which I take. His views on America have been expressed in his speeches. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from White, Red, Black, Vol. 2 of 2: Sketches of American Society in the United States During the Visit of Their Guests A Great deputation arrived at Cincinnati the day before yesterday from Indiana. The legislature of this State had been the first to invite Kossuth to their Capital; and now, as we were in the neighborhood of the State, many Senators and Representatives had come with their wives and children to accompany us to Indianapolis. We went down the Ohio on the steamboat with them, but they were probably disappointed with their trip. Every public man in America, and every foreigner who attracts their attention, must forego privacy. In a country with democratic institutions even the private life of a public man is incessantly watched by friends and enemies; he really seems to live in a glass-house, exposed to intemperate praise and obloquy, though the public does not attach great importance either to one or the other; for a foreigner, however, both occasionally grow unpleasant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public debate and discussion was overshadowed by the slavery controversy during the period of the U.S. Civil War.
