Originally published in 1870, this essay by the American anarchist and political philosopher Lysander Spooner is here reproduced. Described by Murray Rothbard as "the greatest case for anarchist political philosophy ever written", Spooner's lengthy essay is still referenced by anarchists and philosophers today. In it, he argues that the American Civil War violated the US Constitution, thus rendering it null and void. An indispensable read for political historians both amateur and professional alike. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

The Complete Works of Lysander Spooner is a collection of essays, letters, and legal arguments written by the renowned libertarian thinker. Spooner's writing is characterized by its clear and logical arguments, making complex ideas accessible to the general reader. In the context of 19th century American literature, Spooner's work stands out for its radical views on individual rights and limited government. His criticism of the Constitution and belief in natural law set him apart from his contemporaries. The collection covers a wide range of topics including abolitionism, free trade, and the right to self-defense. Overall, the book provides a comprehensive overview of Spooner's important contributions to political philosophy. Lysander Spooner, a self-taught lawyer and political theorist, was a prominent figure in the American libertarian movement. His experiences with the legal system and his strong belief in individual liberty motivated him to write and advocate for his controversial ideas. Spooner's uncompromising stance on individual rights and limited government inspired generations of libertarians and anarchists. I recommend The Complete Works of Lysander Spooner to anyone interested in political philosophy, libertarianism, or American history. Spooner's writings offer a unique perspective on the role of government and the rights of individuals, making this collection an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the roots of American libertarian thought.
