Federal Usurpation is a political treatise written by Franklin Pierce, the 14th President of the United States. The book delves into the topic of federal power and its potential to overstep its boundaries and infringe upon the rights and liberties of individual citizens and states. Pierce argues that the federal government should be limited in its power and authority, and that the Constitution should be strictly interpreted to prevent overreach. He also discusses the importance of states' rights and the need for a balance of power between the federal government and the states. The book provides a historical perspective on the evolution of federal power in the United States and offers insights into the ongoing debate over the proper role of government in American society. Overall, Federal Usurpation is a thoughtful and thought-provoking analysis of an important issue in American politics.Kings have ever been the bugaboo of our American people; but the President of the United States to-day, in the legitimate exercise of his authority, exercises a greater power than any constitutional sovereign on the face of the earth, his power in Europe being exceeded only by that of the czar or the sultan. All the bulwarks of liberty were reared not against the English Parliament but against the English king.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
