Treaty-Making Power: Slavery and the Race Problem in the South is a historical book written by William H. Fleming that explores the complex relationship between treaties, slavery, and race in the American South. The book delves into the legal and political implications of treaty-making power in the context of slavery and the struggle for civil rights during the 19th century.Fleming argues that treaty-making power was an essential tool for the federal government to address the injustices of slavery and racial discrimination in the South. He examines several key treaties, including the Treaty of New Echota, which was used to forcibly remove Native Americans from their land, and the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ended the Mexican-American War and expanded the United States' territory.The book also explores the ways in which the South resisted federal efforts to use treaty-making power to address slavery and racial inequality. Fleming discusses the Supreme Court's controversial Dred Scott decision and the South's efforts to secede from the Union, which ultimately led to the Civil War.Overall, Treaty-Making Power: Slavery and the Race Problem in the South offers a detailed and nuanced analysis of the role of treaties in shaping the history of slavery and race in the United States. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the legal and political history of the American South.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
