Excerpt from Thoughts in a Series of Letters, in Answer to a Question Respecting the Division of the States
The writer of the following sheets, in expressing his opinion on this subject, has availed himself of the right of every freeman. Should he not have been so fortunate as to have fallen in with that of others, it will amount to no more than that he differs from them in opinion, which he conceives himself as having a right to do. In justice to himself for having touched on a subject so novel, and at the same time so important, he must be allowed to say, that he has not taken it up lightly, but from an impression of its necessity, being influenced by no person, and having had an opportunity of ocular demonstration of many of the facts stated; and while he submits his remarks to the ordeal of public opinion, he is ready to attend to any better reasons that might be given in support of this subject, or even to those shewing why it ought not to have been touched. But should this humble attempt be a mean of bringing it before the public, where it will be more ably handled, the labours of the writer will not be considered wholly in vain.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the ramifications of dividing the United States. The author, writing in the early 19th century, proposes a separation of the original 13 states from the western territories and Louisiana, arguing that their differing interests and geography necessitate a split. The author examines the vast extent of the nation, its geographical divisions, and the distinct pursuits of its various regions. They contend that the commercial interests of the East coast are incompatible with the agricultural focus of the West, and that this incompatibility will lead to conflict.
