Publisher's Synopsis

""Slavery in the United States: Its National Recognition and Relations, From the Establishment of the Confederacy to the Present Time"" by Henry Sherman is a comprehensive historical account of the development, expansion, and eventual abolition of slavery in the United States. The book traces the origins of slavery in America from its early introduction in the colonial period to its eventual recognition as a legal institution by the federal government. Sherman examines the complex political and social factors that led to the establishment of the Confederacy and the subsequent Civil War, which ultimately ended slavery in the United States. He also explores the ways in which slavery impacted American society, including its effects on the economy, politics, and culture. Throughout the book, Sherman provides detailed analysis of key events, such as the Missouri Compromise, the Dred Scott decision, and the Emancipation Proclamation. He also highlights the contributions of key figures in the fight against slavery, such as Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman. Overall, ""Slavery in the United States"" is a comprehensive and insightful account of one of the most important and controversial topics in American history. It provides readers with a deep understanding of the origins and impact of slavery in the United States, and its legacy in American society today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
