A passionate argument for individual liberty and limited government, delivered during a time of great conflict and upheaval in American politics. This address, purportedly written by Lysander Spooner but in fact authored by a group of like-minded individuals, calls for a return to the principles of the Constitution and an end to the encroachment of the federal government on the rights of citizens. It is an inspiring call to action that remains relevant today.
