Book excerpt: Excerpt from Archives of Maryland: Journal and Correspondence of the Council of Safety, January, 1 March 20, 1777, And, Journal and Correspondence of the State Council, March 20, 1777 March 28, 1778 The eulogy passed by Chancellor Hanson on the Convention and Council of Safety is worth quoting as a just tribute to the memory of these truly great men. He says: Such an administration, the immediate offspring of necessity, might have been reasonably expected to be subversive of that liberty which it was intended to secure. But in the course of more than two years, during which it was cheerfully submitted to by all except the advocates for British usurpation, although many occasions occurred in which an intemperate zeal transported men beyond the just bounds of modera tion, not a single person fell a victim to the oppression of this irregular government. The truth is, that during the whole memorable interval between the fall of the old, and the institution of the new form of govern ment, there appeared to exist among us such a fund of public virtue as has scarcely a parallel in the annals of the world.

This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines internal political conflicts in the British Empire within the legal framework of treason and sedition. The threat of treason and rebellion pervaded the British Atlantic in the 17th and 18th centuries; Britain's control of its territories was continually threatened by rebellion and war, both at home and in North America. Even after American independence, Britain and its former colony continued to be fearful that opposition and revolution might follow the French example, and both took legal measures to control both speech and political action. This study places these conflicts within a political and legal framework of the laws of treason and sedition as they developed in the British Atlantic. The treason laws originated in the reign of Edward III, and were adapted and modified in the 16th and 17th centuries. They were exported to the colonies, where they underwent both adaptation and elaboration in application in the slave societies as well as those dominated by free settlers. Relationships with natives and European rivals in the Americas affected the definitions of treason in practice, and the divided loyalties of the American revolutionary war added further problems of defining loyalty and treachery. Treason and Rebellion in the British Atlantic, 1685-1800 offers a new study of treason and sedition in the period by placing them in a truly transatlantic perspective, making it a valuable study for those interested in the legal and political of Britain's empire and 18th-century revolutions.
