About this title

Synopsis

""State Papers On Nullification"" is a historical document that includes the public acts of the Convention of the People of South Carolina, held on November 19, 1832. The book is authored by Andrew Jackson, the seventh President of the United States, and was published in 1834. The text is a collection of official documents and speeches that detail the Nullification Crisis, a political conflict that arose in the United States in the early 1830s. The crisis centered on the issue of states' rights and the power of the federal government. South Carolina, led by its governor, John C. Calhoun, believed that states had the right to nullify federal laws that they deemed unconstitutional. This position was fiercely opposed by Jackson, who argued that the Constitution gave the federal government ultimate authority in matters of law. The book provides an in-depth look at the arguments and positions taken by both sides, as well as the events that led up to the crisis. It is an important historical document that sheds light on a pivotal moment in American history and the ongoing debate over states' rights and federal power.Including The Public Acts Of The Convention Of The People Of South Carolina, Assembled At Columbia, November 19, 1832, And March 11, 1833, The Proclamation Of The President Of The United States, And The Proceedings Of The Several State Legislatures Which Have Acted On The Subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
