Precedents Of American Neutrality: In Reply To The Speech Of Sir Roundell Palmer (1864)

By George Bemis

""Precedents of American Neutrality: In Reply to the Speech of Sir Roundell Palmer"" is a historical text written by George Bemis in 1864. The book provides an in-depth analysis of American neutrality policies and practices during times of war, particularly during the American Civil War. Bemis examines the legal and moral justifications for American neutrality and compares them to the policies of other nations. The book is a response to a speech given by Sir Roundell Palmer, a British lawyer and politician, who criticized American neutrality during the Civil War. Bemis argues that American neutrality was consistent with international law and that the United States had the right to remain neutral in the conflict. The book provides a valuable historical perspective on American foreign policy and the concept of neutrality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
