First Abolition Society in the United States (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the creation and evolution of America's oldest abolition society, established in Pennsylvania in 1775. The organization's early focus on stopping the enslavement of free Blacks and assisting those escaping bondage expanded to tackling the broader issue of abolishing slavery within the state. The book analyzes how its Quaker founders, always seeking peaceful change, relied on education and public appeals to shift popular attitudes and gain legal protections for the enslaved. By examining the society's strategies and successes, including their role in the Underground Railroad, the author provides a nuanced understanding of the abolition movement and its profound impact on the lives of enslaved people and the nation as a whole.
