Democracy Vindicated And Dorrism Unveiled is a book written by Dexter Randall in 1846. The book examines the political movement known as Dorrism, which took place in Rhode Island during the mid-19th century. The movement sought to expand voting rights to all white men, regardless of property ownership, and to create a new state constitution that would reflect this change. Randall argues that the Dorrists were misguided in their efforts and that their actions were both illegal and unconstitutional.

The book provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the Dorr War, a failed attempt by the Dorrists to overthrow the state government and establish a new one. Overall, Democracy Vindicated And Dorrism Unveiled is a historical account of an important moment in American democracy and a defense of the principles of the Constitution. It offers insights into the debates and tensions surrounding voting rights and democratic representation in the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
