      The book explores the historical context and implications of a significant political compromise regarding slavery, comparing its eventual failure to the earlier Missouri Compromise. It highlights the skill involved in crafting the plan, which garnered support from various factions at the time. However, the compromise's inability to endure is attributed to shifting conditions rather than flaws in its design. The narrative emphasizes the need to revisit the origins of the Slavery Question to fully grasp the factors that led to the compromise's demise.
