Publisher's Synopsis
Narrative and Correspondence Concerning the Removal of the Deposits: And Occurrences Connected Therewith (1838) is a historical book written by William John Duane. The book is a collection of personal narratives and correspondence related to the removal of government deposits from the Bank of the United States in 1833. The author provides a detailed account of the events that led to the removal of the deposits, including the political tensions between President Andrew Jackson and the Bank's president, Nicholas Biddle. The book also includes letters and documents related to the controversy, as well as Duane's own reflections on the matter. The author's perspective is particularly interesting, as he was a former treasurer of the United States who was removed from his position for opposing Jackson's decision to remove the deposits. Overall, Narrative and Correspondence Concerning the Removal of the Deposits is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American politics and finance in the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
