NEW YORK WEEKLY TRIBUNE, Dec. 22, 1860  

* Pre Civil War tensions - Southern crisis

From weeks before the outbreak of war at Fort Sumter, this issue has much content on the events leading to war.
Included are: "Proceedings of the 'Crisis Committee" "The Question of the Crisis--No Compromise--No Secession - The Union Shall Be Preserved" "From South Carolina - Things Don't Go So Smoothly" "Policy of the New Administration" "South Carolina Secession Convention" has a printing error causing some text loss; "Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet" "is it of Mr. Bates to Mr. Lincoln" and much more.
Eight pages, damp stain near the top, good condition.
