Publisher's Synopsis
Appeal From The American Press To The American People: In Behalf Of John Bratish Eliovich (1840) is a book written by John Neal. The book is an appeal to the American people to support John Bratish Eliovich, a Hungarian revolutionary who had been arrested by the Austrian government. Eliovich had fled Hungary to avoid persecution for his role in the revolution, but was arrested in America and faced extradition to Austria. Neal argues that Eliovich is a hero who fought for freedom and democracy, and that he deserves the support of the American people. He also criticizes the American government for its willingness to extradite Eliovich, and argues that this sets a dangerous precedent for the future. The book is a passionate defense of Eliovich and his cause, and is written in a style that is both persuasive and emotional. It is a powerful reminder of the importance of standing up for what is right, even in the face of overwhelming opposition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
