Hardback. During the long decade from 1848 to 1861 America was like a train speeding down the track, without an engineer or brakes.

This book examines these issues. Editor(s): Finkelman, Paul; Kennon, Donald R. Series: Perspective History of Congress 1801-1877. Num Pages: 264 pages, Illustrations, maps. BIC Classification: 1KBB; 3JH; HBJK; HBLL; JPH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 5817 x 3887 x 23. Weight in Grams: 497.
