The Mecklenburg Declaration Of Independence: A Study Of Evidence Showing That The Alleged Early Declaration Of Independence By Mecklenburg County, Nor (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163278475)

The book titled ""The Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence: A Study of Evidence Showing That the Alleged Early Declaration of Independence by Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, May 1775, Is Spurious"" is a comprehensive analysis of the authenticity of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence. The author, William Henry Hoyt, presents evidence that challenges the validity of the document, which claims that Mecklenburg County declared independence from Great Britain on May 20, 1775, more than a year before the Continental Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence.Hoyt examines the historical context and political climate of the time, as well as the language and style of the alleged declaration, to argue that it was likely a fabrication. He also analyzes the various versions of the document that have surfaced over the years and scrutinizes the testimony of those who claimed to have witnessed the original declaration.Through his meticulous research and analysis, Hoyt ultimately concludes that the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence is spurious and should not be considered a legitimate historical document. This book is an important resource for anyone interested in the history of the American Revolution and the origins of American independence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
