Speech of Langdon Cheves in the Southern Convention at Nashville, Tennessee is a historical document that captures the speech delivered by Langdon Cheves, a prominent American lawyer, politician, and businessman, at the Southern Convention held in Nashville, Tennessee in 1850. In his speech, Cheves addresses the issue of slavery and its impact on the Southern economy and society. He argues that slavery is a necessary evil for the South to maintain its economic prosperity and that attempts to abolish it would lead to the collapse of the entire Southern economy. Cheves also defends the South's right to secede from the Union if necessary to protect its interests. This book provides a valuable insight into the political and social climate of the United States in the mid-19th century and sheds light on the complex issues surrounding slavery and states' rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
