1858 SLAVERY & SLAVE TRADE African American ABOLITIONIST Blake Africa RARE
"The History of Slavery and the Slave Trade" by W. O. Blake is a thorough compilation of the historical records, legislation, and effects of slavery in both ancient and modern societies. It provides an in-depth look at the pervasiveness of slavery in ancient societies like Greece and Rome, detailing how this system contributed to the decline of empires. The book also documents the ignored history of hereditary slavery in England during the Saxon and Norman times, and its subsequent eradication with the rise of Christianity. In addition, Blake delves into the deeply intertwined relationship between slavery and the political history of the United States, showing how the issue has consistently influenced legislation and key governmental decisions. He further provides insights into the forms, laws, extent, and effects of ancient slavery, challenging prevailing opinions and offering diverse viewpoints. The book includes details of the brutalities of the legal and illegal slave trade of the mid-19th-century. Lastly, Blake argues that slavery fundamentally contradicts human rights, personal liberty, and principles of morality, thereby challenging its legality and ethical implications.
