[Hodge, Charles]:

THE STATE OF THE COUNTRY. FROM THE PRINCETON REVIEW, JANUARY, 1861.

[New York: 1861]. 32pp, disbound, caption title [as issued]. Very Good. The Editor of the Princeton Review, Hodge was a Presbyterian theologian. "Though opposed to the institution of slavery, he strongly deprecated the policy of the Abolitionists, and contended that slave-holding was not necessarily a sin. During the Civil War, he resisted the church's declaring itself on the question of political allegiance, but he supported the Federal government in the Review, thereby extending his influence." DAB. Sabin 32330. LCP 4857. Item #6556
