Publisher's Synopsis

""The Cradle of the Confederacy; Or The Times of Troup, Quitman and Yancey: A Sketch of Southwestern Political History"" is a historical account of the political climate in the American South during the early to mid-19th century. The book focuses on the lives and political careers of three prominent figures from the region: George Troup, John Quitman, and William Lowndes Yancey. The author, Joseph Hodgson, provides a detailed examination of the events leading up to the Civil War, including the debates over states' rights, slavery, and secession. He also explores the role that these three men played in shaping the political landscape of the South during this time period. Through extensive research and analysis, Hodgson offers readers a comprehensive understanding of the complex issues that led to the formation of the Confederacy. He examines the social, economic, and political factors that contributed to the region's unique identity and ultimately led to its secession from the United States. Overall, ""The Cradle of the Confederacy"" is an insightful and informative look at a pivotal moment in American history. It sheds light on the motivations and actions of key figures in the South during this tumultuous time and offers valuable insights into the events that ultimately led to the Civil War.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
