The Dred Scott Case is a book written by Otto Gresham in 1908 that delves into the landmark United States Supreme Court case of Dred Scott v. Sandford. The case, which was decided in 1857, centered around the question of whether a slave who had lived in a free state and territory was entitled to his freedom upon returning to a slave state. The decision of the Supreme Court, which ruled against Dred Scott, was widely criticized and is considered one of the most controversial in American history. Gresham's book provides a thorough analysis of the case, including its historical context, legal arguments, and political implications. It also examines the impact of the decision on the nation's ongoing debate over slavery and its role in the lead-up to the Civil War. The Dred Scott Case is an essential read for anyone interested in American history, constitutional law, or the struggle for civil rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
