""Argument Of George S. Boutwell, Sitting For The Trial Of Andrew Johnson, President Of The United States, Impeached Of High Crimes And Misdemeanors April 22-23, 1868"" is a historical book that presents the argument made by George S. Boutwell during the trial of Andrew Johnson, the 17th President of the United States. Johnson was impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors in 1868, and Boutwell was one of the members of the House of Representatives who served as a prosecutor in the trial.In this book, Boutwell presents a detailed argument against Johnson, outlining the charges against him and providing evidence to support his case. He argues that Johnson had violated the Constitution and the laws of the United States by removing Edwin M. Stanton from his position as Secretary of War without the approval of Congress. Boutwell also argues that Johnson had attempted to interfere with the Reconstruction process in the Southern states, and that his actions had threatened the stability of the Union.The book provides a valuable insight into the political and legal climate of the United States during the Reconstruction era, and sheds light on the impeachment process and its implications for American democracy. It is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, politics, or law.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
