Description: The Struggle For Neutrality In America By Charles Francis Adams 1871 An address delivered before the New York Historical Society At their Sixty-Sixth anniversary, December 13th, 1870. In this address, Charles Francis Adams (the son of John Quincy Adams) describes the struggle for neutrality in America With examples from our own past and the current and past state of affairs in Europe, particularly the 1st and 2nd French revolution. A very intriguing topic which remains relevant today due to the militaristic nature of America. It has long been the American philosophy to promote peace with imperial strategy, however the execution of that strategy has been poor at best, and at worst it is arguably false in its entirety. It is interesting to get a glance into the mind of somebody of this time because of how differently general suffering was experienced and viewed. Additionally, the same exact arguments also exist in today's arena. Whether you are a pacifist or militarist, this piece represents a look into American policy as it relates to neutrality in the post Civil War era. A quick and enjoyable read. Let me know if you have any questions or if you desire more photos. Thank you. Insurance provided free of charge.
