The American Theory of Government: Considered with Reference to the Present Crisis is a book written by Peter Hardeman Burnett and published in 1861. The book explores the American theory of government and its relevance to the political crisis that was unfolding at the time. The author examines the principles of American government, including the separation of powers, checks and balances, and federalism. He also discusses the role of the Constitution and the importance of upholding the rule of law. The book is written in the context of the Civil War, which was a major crisis in American history. Burnett argues that the crisis was caused by a failure to uphold the principles of American government, particularly the principle of federalism. He believes that the federal government had overstepped its bounds and violated the rights of the states. Overall, The American Theory of Government is a thoughtful and insightful analysis of American political theory and its application to the crisis of the Civil War. It provides a valuable perspective on the challenges faced by the United States during this tumultuous period in its history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
