About This Item

Orig. pub. Mobile, AL 1876. Reprinted 1975. Print on Demand Edition 2018. xv, 528 pp.

This is an important book for the study of the organization of political parties in the South, consisting in great measure of original material. Alabama was the cradle of the Confederacy and William Lowndes Yancey was the moving spirit of secession. The book concentrates on political factions in Alabama in the 1850s and includes many of Yancey's speeches. Other Gulf states enter the picture with the intrusion of the federal government. Early Indian problems are covered as are South Carolina's Nullification efforts. Particularly intriguing is the dialogue within the Cotton Belt regarding the Border States. The author is concerned with examining the reasons for the secession of the southwestern states with an aim of obliterating sectional misunderstanding. He considers factors leading to secession in the context of Alabama history and the events of national history leading up to the election of Lincoln and the subsequent adoption of the ordinance of secession in Montgomery.

About The Reprint Company Publishers

The Reprint Company Publishers dates its origins to the mid-1950s when my father, who was editor of the local Spartanburg SC Journal, an afternoon newspaper, became involved with the serialized publication of John B.O. Landrum's History of Spartanburg County in the paper. He then issued that as a hardback book in 1959. Over the next ten years, he published about thirty reprints. I became publisher in 1970 and began moving it from a hobby-business to a fulltime occupation.In the early 1970s, I was contacted by the North Carolina Library Association concerning a list of out-of-print North Carolina titles which they felt should be reprinted. Jointly we developed a project which allowed all of the books to be published. Over the next fifteen years, I worked with library associations throughout the South and published reprint editions of approximately three hundred books.From that time to the present, I have been involved in the publication of over six hundred titles with the areas of specialization remaining local and regional history, scholarly material, and genealogical source material for the Southeastern area.The vast majority of our books are hardback and are printed on a long-life paper with a neutral pH factor. We are using Print on Demand technology to bring the better of our backlist titles back into print. Those titles are listed as Print on Demand and are printed upon receipt of an order and ship directly from the bindery within three to ten business days.
