Description

Chapel Hill, North Carolina: The University of North Carolina Press, 2002. 1st Printing. Trade Paperback. Very Good. 6x0x9. First printing. Edge wear, light smudges on half-title page. 2002 Trade Paperback. xii, 256 pp. Most accounts date the birth of American abolitionism to 1831, when William Lloyd Garrison began publishing his radical antislavery newspaper, The Liberator. In fact, however, the abolition movement had been born with the American Republic. In the decades following the Revolution, abolitionists worked steadily to eliminate slavery and racial injustice, and their tactics and strategies constantly evolved. Tracing the development of the abolitionist movement from the 1770s to the 1830s, Richard Newman focuses particularly on its transformation from a conservative lobbying effort into a fiery grassroots reform cause.
