""A Letter To Emory Washburn, William M. Rogers, And Seventy Eight Others: Dissentients From The Resolution Touching Political Action"" is a historical book written by Richard Hildreth in 1840. The book is a letter addressed to Emory Washburn, William M. Rogers, and seventy-eight other individuals who dissented from a resolution regarding political action. The resolution in question was proposed by the Boston Young Men's Anti-Slavery Society and called for the abolition of slavery and the promotion of equal rights for all individuals. The dissenters believed that the resolution was too radical and would lead to political instability. In his letter, Hildreth argues that the dissenters are wrong and that the resolution is necessary for the advancement of human rights.
