Synopsis

This book approaches the topic of national unity from the fresh perspective of natural science. Many have observed parallels between human society and biological organisms; the author agrees and insists that we can learn much about how to structure and maintain a just and harmonious nation by studying the interconnectedness of all living things. The author argues that the United States was founded with an organic unity, a natural cohesion based on shared values and interests. This unity is reflected in the very design of the country, with its navigable rivers, mountain ranges, and coastlines all working together to connect and unify the nation. The author presents scientific evidence to support the idea that the secession of any part of the Union is not only unnatural but impossible. The book concludes with a compelling argument for the importance of preserving the Union, not only for the sake of the nation but for the sake of humanity itself.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

As the following discussion of the scientific bases on which our nationality has rested and must rest, was written in September, 1862, the partial coincidence of certain views herein set forth with those embodied in a portion of the President s Message of December, 18G2, must be regarded as a natural agreement, and as an evidence that these views are truthful and necessary results of candid study. The Editor s Table of Harper s Magazine, for February, 1S63, contains a condensed re-casting, by an able hand, of many facts and view Tspresented in this study, and I can but hope that the popular audience thus reached, as well as the readers of the following pages, may find therein, not only food for reflection, but new courage, and new hope, amid the gloom and distraction of a trying hour. E. B. H. New Haven, Com, Jan. 20, 1863.
