Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Slavery Illustrated in Its Effects Upon Woman and Domestic Society
Deeply has the conviction been rooted, during the last twenty-five years, that the condition of American colored women, and the collateral topics included in the seventh commandment, are the most important theme in the Whole controversy upon slavery because it combines the ecclesias tical questions with all the grand moral points. Yet this vol ume probably would not at present have been promulged, had not the moral and religious warfare assumed a hideous char acter, not less fearful than it is astounding.
As long as the sons of corruption pretended to justify or to palliate the enormities of slave-driving by the principles of carnal policy, or a temporising expediency, or worldly inter est, or any other of the pleas which plainly are branded with the mark of Cain, they might be repelled with mild weapons.
