Description:
Boston,Massachusetts: Richardson, Lord & Holbrook, 1831. Pamphlet. Very Good. 40 pages 25 cm, Complete. Title page a little browned, but otherwise very clean. Removed from a group of pamphlets. An extremely interesting pamphlet, no jingoism, but rather a detailed and knowledgeable account of the origins and underpinnings of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, a matter which should be of considerable interest to constitutional lawyers. Adams links (of course) the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and it is very noteworthy that 8 years later when he argued (and won) the Amistad case before the Supreme Court, his argument was that the principles of the Declaration of Independence should be the determining factor. Adams also addresses (and stands against) Nullification, a South Carolina legal threat to ignore federal taxes, take up arms against Federal troops appointed to collect tariffs, and which would logically lead to insurrection and secession.
