""Letters On The Evils Of Impressment: With The Outline Of A Plan For Doing Them Away"" is a book written by Thomas Urquhart in 1816. The book deals with the issue of impressment, which was the practice of forcing men into military service against their will. Urquhart argues that this practice is a violation of individual rights and a threat to the stability of society. He outlines a plan for doing away with impressment, which involves the creation of a professional standing army that would be staffed by volunteers rather than conscripts. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the debate over military conscription during the early 19th century. It is also a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of individual rights and the development of modern military institutions.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
