Publisher's Synopsis
""The Old Farm And The New Farm: A Political Allegory"" is a book written by Francis Hopkinson and first published in 1864. The book is a political allegory that uses the metaphor of two farms to explore the political and social issues of the time. The Old Farm represents the traditional and conservative values of the past, while the New Farm symbolizes the progressive and liberal ideas of the future. The story follows the struggles of the two farms as they compete for resources and influence, and ultimately, the fate of the country. Through the characters and events in the book, Hopkinson addresses issues such as slavery, women's rights, and the role of government in society. The book is a fascinating look at the political climate of the mid-19th century and remains relevant today as a commentary on the ongoing struggle between tradition and progress.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
