Publisher's Synopsis
A Defense of Southern Slavery: Against the Attacks of Henry Clay and Alexander Campbell is a book written by a Southern Clergyman in 1851. The book is a defense of the institution of slavery in the Southern United States and is a response to the criticisms of Henry Clay and Alexander Campbell, who were both prominent opponents of slavery. The author argues that slavery is a necessary and beneficial institution in the South, and that it is supported by both the Bible and the Constitution. The book also addresses the issue of abolitionism and argues that it is a dangerous and misguided movement that threatens the stability and prosperity of the Southern states. Overall, A Defense of Southern Slavery is a controversial and provocative work that sheds light on the complex and divisive issue of slavery in the pre-Civil War South.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
