A Whig View of Abolition, Slavery, and Democracy
The author argues abolitionists shaped the Republican party, cites Lincoln and Douglas, condemns forced emancipation, and defends Democratic principles. He laments abolitionist influence on Whigs, warns Republicans threaten state sovereignty, and extols democracy from Athens to Jefferson with a vision for American expansion and unity.
