State Of The Union Addresses (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162685540)

""State of the Union Addresses"" is a collection of speeches delivered by Andrew Jackson, the seventh President of the United States, to Congress during his presidency. The book includes all of Jackson's annual messages to Congress, which were given between 1829 and 1837. In these speeches, Jackson discusses a wide range of topics, including economic policy, foreign relations, and the role of government in society. The book provides insight into Jackson's political philosophy and his vision for the future of the United States during a time of great change and expansion. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history or political science.You are assembled at a period of profound interest to the American patriot. The unexampled growth and prosperity of our country having given us a rank in the scale of nations which removes all apprehension of danger to our integrity and independence from external foes, the career of freedom is before us, with an earnest from the past that if true to ourselves there can be no formidable obstacle in the future to its peaceful and uninterrupted pursuit. Yet, in proportion to the disappearance of those apprehensions which attended our weakness, as once contrasted with the power of some of the States of the Old World, should we now be solicitous as to those which belong to the conviction that it is to our own conduct we must look for the preservation of those causes on which depend the excellence and the duration of our happy system of government.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
