Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book compiles lectures given by James Monroe. Monroe reflects on his experiences as an abolitionist in the years immediately before the Civil War and places them within the broader history of anti-slavery efforts in the US. The author discusses the intellectual and spiritual evolution of the abolitionist movement and its members, as he grapples with the tensions in his own philosophical and religious beliefs throughout his journey. Monroe argues that important elements of society, especially the church, had become compromised by slavery and greed, and that this compromise required a passionate and radical response from those who had dedicated their lives to justice. The book provides a close-up perspective on the efforts of early abolitionists to challenge a nation enthralled to a system of unimaginable brutality. Through the author's own experiences, historical context, and comprehensive engagement with the ethical questions of his time, this book provides a unique glimpse into one of the most tumultuous periods of U.S. history.
