Synopsis

This book, first published in 1861, asserted that slavery was not immoral, but rather a natural and beneficial system that benefited both races. It argues that the Southern way of life was under threat from the anti-abolitionist movement growing in the North and claimed that this was a symptom of the impending collapse of the American Union. It argues that the two races were fundamentally different and that the status quo, with one race in charge, was the only way to sustain both their peoples. While slavery was abolished later that same year, the author's work remains a fascinating documentation of a crucial period of American history and a reminder of the deep-seated beliefs and fears that led to the Civil War.
