Synopsis

Considerations on the Negroe Cause Commonly So Called is a book written by Samuel Estwick in 1773. The book is a response to the growing abolitionist movement in England and seeks to defend the institution of slavery and the slave trade. Estwick argues that slavery is a necessary and beneficial institution for both the slave and the slave owner. He claims that slaves are better off under the care of their masters than they would be if they were free and that the slave trade is a vital part of the British economy. Estwick also addresses the moral and religious objections to slavery, arguing that the Bible does not condemn the practice and that many respected Christian leaders throughout history have supported it. He also criticizes the abolitionist movement for its perceived hypocrisy, pointing out that many of its members were involved in other forms of exploitation and oppression, such as the exploitation of workers in factories and mines. Overall, Considerations on the Negroe Cause Commonly So Called is a controversial and divisive book that reflects the attitudes and beliefs of its time. It provides insight into the arguments used to defend slavery in the 18th century and the challenges faced by abolitionists in their efforts to end the practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
