Remarks of A. O. P. Nicholson, of Tennessee, on the Sectional Conflict on the Subject of Slavery is a book written by Alfred Osborn Pope Nicholson in 1860. The book is a compilation of speeches given by Nicholson on the topic of slavery and the growing conflict between the North and South in the United States. Nicholson was a prominent politician and lawyer from Tennessee who was known for his strong support of slavery and states' rights.The book is divided into several sections, each of which covers a different aspect of the sectional conflict. Nicholson begins by discussing the history of slavery in the United States and its role in the country's economy. He then goes on to argue that slavery is a necessary institution for the South and that attempts to abolish it would be detrimental to both the North and South.Throughout the book, Nicholson also addresses the growing tensions between the North and South and the role that slavery played in exacerbating these tensions. He argues that the North's attempts to limit the spread of slavery into new territories were a violation of states' rights and that the South had the right to secede from the Union if necessary.Overall, Remarks of A. O. P. Nicholson, of Tennessee, on the Sectional Conflict on the Subject of Slavery provides a detailed and passionate defense of slavery and states' rights from the perspective of a prominent Southern politician. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of slavery in the United States and the events leading up to the Civil War.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
