Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that the American charter governments established by Britain had a legitimate claim to their charters. The author argues this by establishing that the charter governments did not violate the terms of their charters, did not engage in malfeasance or maladministration, and that even if they had, it would not be in the best interests of the Crown to revoke the charters. The author further asserts that the attempt to revoke the charters was executed in an extraordinary and legally questionable manner, through a bill in Parliament. In addition to recounting these arguments, this book provides a historical context for the establishment of the charter governments and the evolution of their relationship with the Crown. The author also provides a detailed accounting of the grievances of the Crown against the charter governments and responds to each argument individually. In doing so, the author offers insight into the complex legal and political landscape of the American colonies, the prerogatives of the Crown, and the rights and privileges of the colonists.
