The Union Not A Compact: A Speech is a historical speech delivered by Daniel Webster in 1833. In this speech, Webster argues that the United States is not simply a compact or agreement between individual states, but rather a union that is indissoluble and perpetual. He defends the supremacy of the federal government over individual states and emphasizes the importance of maintaining unity in the face of potential secessionist movements. The speech was delivered during a time of intense debate over states' rights and the role of the federal government in regulating slavery. It is considered a seminal moment in American political history and a key contribution to the ongoing debate over the nature of the American Union.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
