The Great Conspiracy John Alexander Logan

The Great Conspiracy: Seven Volumes in One, Illustrated by John Alexander Logan. In the preparation of this work it has been the writer's aim to present in it, with historical accuracy, authentic facts; to be fair and impartial in grouping them; and to be true and just in the conclusions necessarily drawn from them. While thus striving to be accurate, fair, and just, he has not thought it his duty to mince words, nor to refrain from "calling things by their right names". To properly understand the condition of things we must glance backward through the history of the Country to 30th of November, 1782, when the Independence of the United States of America was conceded by UK. At that time the population of the US was about 2,500,000 free whites and some 500,000 black slaves. We had gained our Independence of the Mother Country. John Alexander Logan (1826-1886) was an American soldier and political leader. He served in the Mexican-American War and was a general in the Union Army in the American Civil War.
