Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of messages and addresses by Thomas Holliday Hicks, Governor of Maryland from 1857 to 1862. The messages and addresses cover a wide range of topics, including the financial crisis of 1857, the issue of slavery, and the outbreak of the Civil War. The book provides a valuable insight into the political and social climate of Maryland during a turbulent period in American history. The author's insights on the issues of the day are thoughtful and nuanced, and he does not shy away from expressing his own opinions, even when they are unpopular. For example, in his message to the legislature on the financial crisis, Hicks argues that the crisis was caused by "the reckless speculation which has included almost every variety of property" and the "abuse" of the banking system. He also proposes a number of reforms to the banking system, including an increase in the specie basis of all banks of issue within the state. On the issue of slavery, Hicks takes a moderate position. He believes that slavery is a "moral and political evil," but he also believes that it is a "domestic institution" that should be left to the states to decide. He opposes the abolition of slavery in Maryland, but he also supports the right of petition and the right of free speech for those who oppose slavery. On the outbreak of the Civil War, Hicks initially tries to maintain Maryland's neutrality. However, after the Union occupation of Baltimore, he reluctantly supports the Union cause. He believes that Maryland's best interests lie with the Union, and he works to prevent the state from seceding. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Maryland or the Civil War. The author's insights on the issues of the day are thoughtful and nuanced, and he does not shy away from expressing his own opinions, even when they are unpopular. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
