About This Book

A systematic compilation of original documents, testimonies, legal opinions, and press reports assembled to substantiate a prior fictional portrayal of slavery, organized into topical chapters. The author analyzes slavery as a moral and religious problem, examines legal arguments and institutional mechanisms that sustain it, and addresses common defenses through factual rebuttal. Numerous corroborative statements and case studies illustrate patterns of abuse, the commerce surrounding human bondage, and the roles of individuals and authorities. The work is framed to persuade a Christian readership by bringing documentary evidence to bear on ethical and practical calls for reform.

About the Author

Stowe, Harriet Beecher portrait

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896) was an American author and abolitionist, best known for her influential novel "Uncle Tom's Cabin," which played a significant role in shaping public opinion on slavery in the United States. Stowe's writing often addressed social issues, and she was a prominent figure in the anti-slavery movement. Her works, including "Dred: A Tale of the Great Dismal Swamp" and "Agnes of Sorrento," reflect her deep commitment to social justice and her exploration of moral and ethical themes. Stowe's literary contributions have left a lasting impact on American literature and the fight for civil rights.
