Description

A rare and notorious example of early American political discourse. Daggett was a staunchly conservative Federalist, a Connecticut politician, and one of the founders of Yale Law School. Delivered in response to a proposal for a New Haven College for African American men, this speech is is noteworthy in Connecticut political and racial history for its derisive description of progressive reform. ; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 28 pages
