Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the untold story of the U.S. Customs Service and its profound impact on American history. From its contentious beginnings amidst the American Revolution to its multifaceted role in shaping national policy, the author meticulously examines pivotal moments where Customs played a crucial role. Through meticulous research and engaging storytelling, the book sheds light on Customs' involvement in critical events such as the embargo era, the nullification controversy, and the Civil War. It explores the challenges of enforcing controversial laws, from the Chinese Exclusion Act to Prohibition, and highlights the struggles against corruption and the fight for reform within the agency. This book reveals the often-overlooked significance of the U.S. Customs Service, not only as a revenue-generating entity but also as a guardian of national security and a reflection of the nation's evolving identity. It offers a compelling narrative of how an institution, born out of the need for revenue, became a force shaping the very fabric of American history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9780243151424_0
