A Bone To Gnaw For The Democrats

Bag om A Bone To Gnaw For The Democrats

A Bone To Gnaw For The Democrats is a political book written by William Cobbett, a British journalist and political reformer. The book was originally published in 1807 and is a scathing critique of the Democratic Party in the United States. Cobbett argues that the Democrats are hypocritical and self-serving, using populist rhetoric to gain power while ignoring the needs of the people they claim to represent. He also criticizes the party's support for slavery and their opposition to tariffs, which he believes are necessary for the economic success of the country. The title of the book comes from a phrase used in the British Parliament, where a ""bone to gnaw"" referred to a difficult or contentious issue. Cobbett uses this phrase to suggest that the Democrats are facing difficult questions that they are unable to answer. Overall, A Bone To Gnaw For The Democrats is a provocative and controversial book that offers a unique perspective on American politics in the early 19th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of American political thought and the evolution of political parties in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
