Description: THE FISHERIES DISPUTE A Suggestion For Its Adjustment By Abrogating The Convention Of 1818, And Resting On The Rights And Liberties Defined In The Treaty Of 1783 A Letter To The Honorable William M. Evarts United States Senate By John Jay Late Minister to Vienna 1887 Second Edition Dodd, Mead & Company, New York 52 pages This publication, a letter to U.S. Senator William M. Evarts, deals with the contentious issue of fishing rights between the United States and Canada, which had been the subject of a treaty signed in 1818. Jay suggests that the treaty should be abrogated and that the issue should be resolved based on the rights and liberties defined in the Treaty of 1783. The book provides a detailed analysis of the legal and historical background of the dispute, as well as a proposal for a new approach to resolving it. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the complex relationship between the United States and Canada and the ongoing disputes over natural resources. Almost every copy you will see of this text is a later (21st century) reprint with no collectible value. This original 1887 printing is RARE! No covers, just stapled pages. There is a 2 1/4" razor line cut on the title page, the cut slicing into 1 /3/4" of the first page affecting a little text. 5 7/8" x 9 1/8"
