Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an assemblage of three letters written by Robert Dale Owen, a prominent 19th-century American politician, to various government officials during the Civil War. The letters, written in 1862, are startlingly prescient in their arguments in favor of emancipation as a means to end the war and to secure a lasting peace. Owen provides a detailed analysis of the political, economic, and social factors that made slavery incompatible with the preservation of the Union and argues that emancipation was not only morally right but also strategically necessary. His insights into the dynamics of power, the role of race in American society, and the importance of decisive leadership remain highly relevant today, offering valuable lessons for understanding and addressing contemporary issues of racial justice and political polarization.
