Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Law of Freedom and Bondage in the United States, Vol. 2 of 2
It is in the agitation of The Slavery Question, almost ex elusively, that those doctrines of State sovereignty have, dur ing the last thirty years, been exhibited, upon which practical secession is claimed to be legitimate public action; and as those who were most opposed in their moral and political preferences in respect to slavery were at the same time almost in harmony on this subject, in view of totally different ends, it could be no occasion for surprise if these doctrines had been found to have gained greatly in acceptance during that agitation, in the Northern as well as in the Southern States.
