Overview

This volume presents a collection of speeches delivered at Tammany Hall in New York City on September 2, 1852. Featured speakers include prominent political figures of the era: Hon. Lewis Cass of Michigan, Stephen A. Douglas of Illinois, John L. Dawson of Pennsylvania, and Willis A. Gorman of Indiana. Their orations offer insight into the political discourse and concerns of the mid-19th century United States. In addition to the speeches, the volume includes the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions of 1798 and 1799, foundational documents in the early history of American political thought. These resolutions, which address questions of states' rights and the limits of federal power, provide essential context for understanding the debates of the time. This collection offers valuable primary source material for students and scholars of American history, political science, and rhetoric.
