Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Bound volume containing the first 8 quarterly issues published [which is all that was published under this title]. Old 1/4 leather, recently and neatly rebacked. The original front and back covers are heavily rubbed with loss of some of the original paper covering. Contents sound with mostly mini…mal foxing. "Georgia A. S. Society" written in ink a couple of times of front endpaper. A list of six names (A. Bliss, Jr., J. B. Sylvester, Hiram B. Ballard and three others which we were less able to decipher) is written inside the back cover. We know nothing about any Georgia Anti-Slavery Society. Membership is such an organization in the State of Georgia would have been extremely risky if not suicidal. Nonetheless, we were intrigued.
