A Brief View of Constitutional Powers is a book written by Charles Ingersoll in 1864. The book argues that the United States is a union of independent states that have come together under a common constitution. Ingersoll examines the powers granted to the federal government under the constitution and asserts that these powers are limited and do not infringe upon the sovereignty of the individual states. He also argues that the states have the right to nullify federal laws that they deem unconstitutional. The book is a defense of the principles of states' rights and limited government, and it reflects the political debates of the time leading up to the Civil War. Overall, A Brief View of Constitutional Powers is an important historical document that sheds light on the constitutional theory of the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
