Webster-Hayne Debate - An Inquiry into the Nature of Union

Informationen zum Autor By Stefan M. Brooks Klappentext In January 1830, a debate on the nature of sovereignty in the American federal union occurred in the United States Senate between Senators Daniel Webster of Massachusetts and Robert Hayne of South Carolina.
