Dear friend,

We forward you herewith 
a copy of Mr Giddings new work, the
 Exiles of Florida. 

The work is firmly historical 
and by disclosing the objects and causes
 of the Florida Way, in which so much
 blood and treasure have been expended,
 it is hoped by the author in some degree 
to elevate, and purify the political morality
 of the country.

The facts are drawn from reliable
 sources in most cases from the archives
 at Washington - and whatever
 view the reader may have of the authors
 purposes we think he will readily 
agree that there is a charm in the 
work rarely found in historical 
publications. 

We hope your time 
will admit of your giving the
 book a discriminating examination, 
and shall be pleased to receive your 
impressions of its probable usefulness. We
think that its wide circulation will
 do much toward  the tearing down 
of the "Democracy" 

Your very Respy
Follett Foster & Co.

Hon. Abram Lincoln.
