Book Description

Excerpt from Speech of Hon. C. C. Clay, Jr., Of Alabama, on the Contest in Kansas and the Plans and Purposes of Black Republicanism: Delivered in the United States Senate, April 21, 1856 No one can misunderstand this language.

Entries are organized both geographically and topically, and cover a broad range of subjects including cross-cultural interaction, health, art, and law.
