A serious address to the rulers of America, on the inconsistency of their conduct respecting slavery: forming a contrast between the encroachments of ... and American injustice in tolerating slavery.

by David Cooper

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
Delve into what it was like to live during the eighteenth century by reading the first-hand accounts of everyday people, including city dwellers and farmers, businessmen and bankers, artisans and merchants, artists and their patrons, politicians and their constituents. Original texts make the American, French, and Industrial revolutions vividly contemporary.

[Jordan B Cooper · Rating 5 out of 5]

A work from one of my ancestors arguing for abolition in early America. This little booklet was given to Washington, Jefferson, and other founding fathers. A great look at early arguments against slavery in the US.
