Publisher's Synopsis
The Progress and Intelligence of Americans is a book written by Marvin T. Wheat in 1862. The book presents a comprehensive study of the progress and intelligence of Americans, with a particular focus on the impact of slavery in the South and Southwest regions of the United States. Wheat argues that slavery has been a significant factor in the development of the American economy and society, and provides evidence from the Genesis and Progress of Slavery to support his claims. The book also explores the cultural and social impact of slavery on the lives of African Americans, and the ways in which it has affected their progress and development over time.Throughout the book, Wheat seeks to demonstrate that the progress and intelligence of Americans is closely tied to the issue of slavery, and that the abolition of slavery would have a profound impact on the future of the country. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the complex relationship between slavery and American society during the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
