Publisher's Synopsis

Provides a detailed investigation into the heated tariff debate of the late 1820s and early 1830s in the US, focusing on its fascinating climax: the Philadelphia Free Trade Convention of 1831. This intriguing volume is the first in-depth examination of the events directly preceding the famous Compromise Tariffs that sought to bind Americans together, but ultimately hastened the loosening of the cords of the Union.
