Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an extremely detailed historical look at the 1864 libel suit brought by George Opdyke against Thurlow Weed, the editor of the Albany Evening Journal. The book explores the details of the trial and the nature of the libelous charges brought against Opdyke, including that he sold the office of Surveyor of the port of New York for $10,000, received double pay for his guns, charged excessive prices for shoddy clothing, and sold stock from John C. Fremont's Mariposa estate without his consent. The book delves deep into the 19th-century world of publishing, politics, and corruption, highlighting the contentious relationship between Opdyke and Weed and the motivations behind the public attacks on Opdyke's character. Ultimately, this book provides valuable insights into the nature of truth, justice, and the power of the press during a pivotal era in American history.
