Description:
All We Ask is to be Let Alone: The Southern Secession Fact BookBy Lochlainn Seabrook
454 pages - Illustrated Hardcover
Laid out in an easy-to-read format, the book covers some 300 primary facts and thousands of secondary ones, putting a human face on what has long been considered an abstract political theory. To provide context Colonel Seabrook has kindly included the complete texts of the 13 Secession Ordinances, the all-important Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions of 1798, and the Virginia Report of 1799, along with hundreds of contemporaneous writings and observations by Southern and Northern Founding Fathers, U.S. presidents, vice presidents, statesmen, politicians, constitutional scholars, legal authorities, and even foreign intellectuals, all who supported the right of secession based on rational, clearcut, and unassailable arguments.
Rounding out the title there is a comprehensive bibliography, a detailed index, and nearly 800 endnotes.
