The Congress Canvassed is a historical pamphlet offering a critical examination of the delegates' conduct at the First Continental Congress held in Philadelphia on September 1, 1774. Penned by A. W. Farmer, also known as Samuel Seabury, this work is addressed to the merchants of New York and provides a contemporary perspective on the pivotal events leading up to the American Revolution. Seabury, known for his Loyalist viewpoints, scrutinizes the decisions and actions taken during the Congress, offering a valuable insight into the political tensions and debates of the time. This pamphlet sheds light on the complexities and divisions within colonial society as it grappled with the growing conflict with Great Britain. It remains a significant primary source for understanding the political discourse and the varied opinions surrounding the American Revolution.
