pp. 325 + Eight full page lithographed satirical plates by August Hervieu, who accompanied Mrs. Trollope on her American tour. Foxed. Worn contemporary full cloth binding. "Landing at New Orleans in late December, 1827, she went almost immediately up the river to Memphis and thence to Louisville and Cincinnati, reaching the latter place about February 10, 1828. At Memphis she tarried a few days and went to visit Francis Wright's near-by Nashoba Community, which oppressed her with its unfinished buildings and primitive surroundings. After leaving Cincinnati, the scene of her most violent tirades against the United States, she passed the summer of 1830 in Maryland. Here she observed slavery, especially among the small landed proprietors, and found the slaves not badly treated, although she believed the essence of the system to be bad" - Clark 112. She also visited Pennsylvania, Baltimore, Washington, and New York. "A minor classic of looking down one's nose" - Streeter 845. Her book became an instant best seller. Her attacks on the Americans assured that the book would be an object of great controversy, and would sell on both sides of the Atlantic.

Uncommon wrappered issue of this significant debate between two 19th century Baptist leaders over the Bible's teachings on slavery which went through at least four subsequent editions between 1847-1860. "The chapters were originally letters published in a Baptist newspaper in Boston Massachusetts. Southern pastor Richard Fuller and Northern educator Francis Wayland were each able defenders of their respective positions. These men were also good friends who believed that a difference of opinion about slavery should not necessiatate a breaking of Christian fellowship. Unfortunately these two Baptist leaders proved naive in this regard. Just weeks after the publication of the correspondence in book form Fuller's Southern Baptist Convention broke away from the larger Baptist denomination and formed a new ecclesiastical body. A number of issues factored into the division though the slavery debate was what ultimately led to the creation of a separate Baptist denomination in the South" from the Mercer University Press edition 2008.

18508864Washington: Buell & Blanchard 1850. Disbound. near Very Good binding. Octavo. 8 pp. Removed from volume. Inner margin a bit irregular; horizontal creases from being folded. <br /> <br /> Stevens rails against "Southern gentlemen" who he argues have obstructed the business of Congress by speeches on the subject of slavery. The remedy Another speech on slavery. And no doubt the subject was indeed occupying Congress and the country. In fact the Compromise of 1850 and its Fugitive Slave Act was just months away from passage when Stevens took the floor with this searing speech against the institution of slavery and the Southern legislators who were holding Congress hostage. Stevens cites Mr. Clingman of North Carolina who in Stevens's words "was selected to open the debate in behalf of human bondage distinctly notified us that unless Congress as a condition precedent submitted to settle the Slavery question according to Southern demands there should be no legislation even the passage of the ordinary appropriation bills necessary to sustain the Government."

185519759N. p.: Jan. 4th 1855. Autograph address in ink on an unbound fascicle of 15 folia 30 leaves stitched. These arguments it is believed fairly prove that a man can be at the same time both a slave-holder and a Christian or stated in the abstract that the particular relation of superior & inferior known as slavery is not in itself necessarily sinful." An extensive detailed legal and ethical apology for American slavery arguing that a reciprocal relationship exists between the enslaver and the slave; the speak tentatively argues that Congress does have power to regulate slavery in the territories and had words against the doctrine of Popular Sovereignty. The anonymity of this argument and the popular setting of the lyceum stage perhaps as a student production seems altogether fitting as a reflection of the widespread currency of legalistic equivocation over chattel slavery in America prior to the Civil War. With revisions and interpolations and corrections to the text throughout. Jan. 4th, books
