Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Border States: Their Power and Duty in the Present Disordered Condition of the Country is a book written by John P. Kennedy and published in 1861. The book explores the role of the border states in the American Civil War, specifically their power and duty in the midst of the country's disordered condition. Kennedy argues that the border states, which included Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, and Missouri, held a unique position in the conflict because they were divided in their loyalties between the North and the South. The book examines the political, economic, and social factors that contributed to the border states' position, as well as the potential outcomes of their decisions. Kennedy argues that the border states' decisions could have a significant impact on the outcome of the war, and that they had a responsibility to act in the best interest of the country as a whole. Overall, The Border States provides a detailed analysis of the complex situation facing the border states during the Civil War and offers insight into the challenges and opportunities they faced in navigating this difficult period in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
