Publisher's Synopsis
""Inside View of Slavery"" by Charles Grandison Parsons is a first-hand account of the author's experiences and observations during a tour of the Southern United States in the mid-19th century. The book provides a detailed and often critical examination of the institution of slavery and its effects on both the enslaved people and the slave owners. Parsons describes the living conditions of enslaved people, their work routines, and the punishments they endured. He also provides insights into the economic and social structures of plantation life, as well as the attitudes and beliefs of the slave owners. The book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the realities of slavery in the United States and the efforts of abolitionists to end it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
