Description

Civil War-era political pamphlet issued by the Democratic Newspaper Offices, printed in 1864 during the presidential election campaign when Republican incumbent Abraham Lincoln was running for reelection against Democratic candidate George B. McClellan. Designed as anti-Lincoln propaganda, the pamphlet, issued as “Document No. 12,” eight pages, 5.75 x 8.75, frames Lincoln as an incompetent military leader and contains various examples of orders and printed letters from Lincoln to Union Generals U. S. Grant and George B. McClellan, all intended to cast the president in a negative light. In very good to fine condition, with light soiling, and a small stain.
