Synopsis

This book is an account of two meetings held in 1852 to discuss the presidential nomination of General Winfield Scott and to propose the candidacy of Daniel Webster in protest. The author provides an in-depth analysis of the motivations of both Whig and Democratic politicians and the tactics they employed to secure their desired outcome. The book also includes an address to the people of the United States, written by those who supported Webster's nomination, urging them to put aside party loyalties and vote for a candidate whose qualifications and experience made him the best choice for the office. The book provides a glimpse into the strategies and maneuvering of 19th-century American politics and sheds light on the complex interplay between party politics and the public will.
