Description
Pamphlet, 8vo, original green printed wrappers, 17 pp. Wrappers chipped and torn, with a few small pieces missing from the margins, back wrapper almost detached, vertical tear on cover repaired on verso, a few pages with tears at extremities, light toning; else very good. This is a scarce and unusual item that gives a different political message from the Civil War period. The author, who calls himself, Green-Back, seems to object to the failures of politicians of his day, and in fact, this is an open letter to the 37th Congress. Sounds like he has Copperhead leanings, but his key message is that it was time for the Representatives and represented come to an understanding. He seems to think that Congress is too busy or distracted with the needs of slaves and related issues to take care of other business. According to Green-Back, Congress doesn't seem to have much time for other affairs, because of their plans "for the full development of their much admired and more beloved Congo men". He also seems dissatisfied with the press, who he suggests instigated or helped cause the war, and whom only present a one sided view of the war.
