About This Item
Soft cover. Near Fine. 8vo. Original printed wrappers, 26pp, with sewn seam. C. Sherman and Sons, printers, Philadelphia 1862. First Edition. Charles Ingersoll, an advocate of the Union in the Civil War, had written a public letter to a Southern friend, urging settlement of differences by giving in to Southern demands. Thayer effectively rebuts Ingersolls argument. He advises the North not to compromise in some unmentioned manner and upon some impossible terms (for you do not venture to hint at them), with bands of armed insurgents, who have plundered the public property. . . Men who have set up a mock government, which they make the agent of the despotism. He mentions the Missouri Compromise, the Lincoln elections, and as he puts it, the mock President of the Confederacy. He cites the struggles of 1776 and the Norths rise to end the secession by force of arms and to end slavery once and for all. Wrappers chipped and incomplete, interior clean. Fine. Rare.
