Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book probes the volatility in Massachusetts, arising from the nation's divisive Fugitive Slave Law, which forced compliance with the Constitution's protection of slavery. The author opens the discussion with an impassioned editorial by a prominent journal that warns of the dire consequences of the newly passed measure. The book further explores the divisive issue with a sermon given by a prominent pastor who argues that compliance with the law is unethical and immoral. The author juxtaposes these two viewpoints to illustrate the stark divide that the law created within a population that had previously exhibited unity in its approach to the abolitionist debate. The author places this debate within the context of a nation teetering on the brink of civil war, with the Fugitive Slave Law acting as a catalyst for the coming conflict. The book concludes by exploring the dangers of a government that fails to uphold its promises, particularly when those promises are enshrined within the Constitution. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
