United States Bonds or Duress by Federal Authority: A Journal of Current Events During an Imprisonment of Fifteen Months, at Fort Delaware (1874) is a book written by Isaac W. K. Handy. The book is a memoir of Handy's experience during his imprisonment at Fort Delaware for refusing to pay a tax on his Confederate bonds. Handy was a former Confederate soldier and a prominent lawyer from Maryland. The book provides a detailed account of his imprisonment, including the harsh conditions he endured and the political climate of the time. The book also discusses the legality of the tax and the constitutional issues surrounding it. The book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the treatment of Confederate sympathizers during the Reconstruction era in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
