D. 2060'' is a thought-provoking work of speculative fiction that explores important themes about power, wealth, and corruption.

Good. - A slightly irregularly cut slip of paper, approximately 1-1/4 inches high by 2-1/2 inches wide & apparently cut from an envelope, is signed "Pierre Soule" below the word "free". The paper is slightly soiled. Good. Born and raised in France, Pierre Soule [1801-1870] was exiled for revolutionary activities. He moved to Great Britain and then to the United States where he settled in New Orleans and became an attorney. He served as a United States Senator from Louisiana from 1849 to 1853, resigning to accept an appointment as U.S. Minister to Spain under Zachary Taylor, a post he held until 1855. He is best known for his role in writing the 1854 Ostend Manifesto, part of an attempt by Southern slaveholders to gain support for the U.S. to annex Cuba. This would have accommodated some Southern planters who wanted to expand their territory into the Caribbean and Central America. The Manifesto was widely denounced, especially by anti-slavery elements, and Soule was personally criticized.
