c. 1862 Civil War Period, Printed Broadside, Published by the National Union Executive Committee, Astor House, New York," 12" x 9" with the opening statement reading: "The Chicago Convention declared that the War against the Rebellion had proven a FAILURE. They put forth as 'the sense of the American People and on the strength of this declaration, they demanded that 'immediate efforts be made for a CESSATION OF HOSTILITIES !'. Is this true? Is the war in which we have poured forth our blood and treasure - in which thousands and tens of thousands of our sons and our brothers have laid down their lives, - A FAILURE? Look at the Facts...". This historic, Politically oriented Broadside looks at reasons for the Civil War, and it lists various statements from Generals Grant, Seymour, Sherman and Dix. Very good condition.
