Publisher's Synopsis
Treaty-Making Power: Slavery And The Race Problem In The South is a book written by William H. Fleming. The book explores the history of the United States government's treaty-making power and its impact on the issue of slavery and race in the southern states. The author argues that the government's treaty-making power was a key factor in the expansion of slavery in the southern states, and that the government's failure to regulate the slave trade and protect the rights of African Americans contributed to the race problem that still exists in the region today. The book provides a detailed analysis of the legal and political issues surrounding the treaty-making power, and examines the role of key figures such as Thomas Jefferson and John C. Calhoun in shaping the government's policies on slavery and race. Overall, Treaty-Making Power: Slavery And The Race Problem In The South is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of a complex and controversial topic 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.
