Excerpt from The Hireling and the Slave
I ask permission to inscribe the following verses to you. If not a fit offering to your taste and judgement, they at least give me an opportunity for saying how much I admire the wit, intellect and learning, which you have devoted with so much success to every noble purpose; which have never failed friend or stranger in distress, nor shrunk from a toil or sacrifice required by Justice, Humanity, or Generosity.
The most exalted station in society is that of the Advocate who employs distinguished legal attainments and abilities to defend the unfortunate, vindicate truth and right, and maintain law, order and established government - and this station is universally admitted to be yours.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book takes a powerful and provocative look at the institution of slavery in the United States as it existed in the antebellum period. The author engages in a pointed and spirited defense of slavery, arguing that, despite its flaws, it represents the best system of labor for the African people in America. He contrasts the condition of slaves with that of laborers in England, arguing that slaves in America enjoy a more secure and comfortable life than their counterparts in Europe. The author contends that slaves receive essential care, such as food, shelter, and religious instruction, and are ultimately better off than they would be in Africa. His passionate defense of slavery is placed within the context of the fiery debates about abolition that raged in the period before the American Civil War. The book uses poetry and verse to present its arguments, providing a unique and engaging look at the complex realities of American society in the early nineteenth century. The authorââ â¢s insights offer a rare glimpse into the mindset of those who defended slavery, providing a valuable historical resource for understanding the intellectual and cultural landscape of the antebellum South.
