""The Whig Party in the South"" written by Arthur Charles Cole is a historical account of the political party that emerged in the southern states of America during the early 19th century. The book delves into the origins of the Whig Party, its ideology, and its impact on the political landscape of the South. Cole examines the reasons behind the party's formation and its efforts to challenge the dominance of the Democratic Party in the region. He also explores the role of key figures in the party, such as Henry Clay and Daniel Webster, and their contributions to the Whig movement. The book provides a detailed analysis of the Whig Party's successes and failures in the South, including its support for internal improvements, protective tariffs, and opposition to slavery. Cole also examines the party's decline in the region, which was largely due to the rise of the Republican Party and the outbreak of the Civil War. Overall, ""The Whig Party in the South"" is a comprehensive study of an important political movement in American history, and it sheds light on the complex political and social dynamics of the antebellum South.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
