Description

Rare 1861 Civil War Pamphlet “Slavery And The Remedy” By Samuel Nott

Original 1861 Civil War-era pamphlet titled “The Necessities and Wisdom of 1861 – A Supplement to the Sixth Edition of Slavery and the Remedy” authored by Samuel Nott and published in Boston by Crocker and Brewster in 1861.

This scarce period publication addresses the mounting sectional crisis at the outbreak of the Civil War and reflects contemporary Northern political and social thought regarding slavery, secession, and preservation of the Union. Printed in the opening year of the conflict, the pamphlet offers fascinating insight into the tense national atmosphere as Americans grappled with the realities of civil war.

The booklet remains in untouched condition with original paper wraps, showing honest age toning, edge wear, and scattered foxing consistent with age. The binding remains intact despite expected chipping and wear along the spine edge. Interior pages display clear, legible text throughout.

Publications directly connected to the political and social climate of 1861 remain highly collectible, particularly those discussing slavery and the sectional divide that led to the Civil War. An excellent research and display piece for collectors of Civil War paper, abolitionist and slavery-related material, and nineteenth-century Americana.

A seldom encountered original Civil War pamphlet with strong historical significance.
