RARE 1801 Letter Robert Harper, South Carolina Solider in Revolution & War 1812

Description: A Letter From Robert Goodloe Harper of South Carolina, To His Constituents By Robert Goodloe Harper Published: Portsmouth, N.H. : Printed by C. Pierce, 1801 16 pp. Softcover in original wraps, thread sewn binding, untrimmed. In good condition overall with paper moderately yellowed and with minor scattered foxing. The "letter" is complete but a printers wrapper which probably once covered this issue is long gone, and the pages have no other binding than a single tied stitch which may be original. Harper was born in Virginia, a soldier in the Revolution, and later a major-general in the War of 1812. He was a lawyer, Federalist Representative from South Carolina, later a Senator from Maryland, and a former Vice-Presidential candidate. A key figure of American history, known (among other things) for the toast: "Millions for defense, but not one penny for tribute." His vehement dislike for Thomas Jefferson went far beyond his avowed protest here against the decision of the Senate to seat Jefferson as president instead of Aaron Burr. I've done my best to describe the book, but if you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to send me an e-mail.
