Border Methodism and Border Slavery is a historical book written by J. Mayland McCarter in 1858. The book provides a detailed account of the Philadelphia Annual Conference's stance on slavery during the mid-19th century. The author delves into the history of Methodism in the border states, particularly in Maryland and Virginia, and how the institution of slavery was intertwined with the religion. McCarter provides a critical review of the actions taken by the Philadelphia Annual Conference concerning slavery, including the debates and resolutions passed during their meetings. He also discusses the various arguments and justifications used by Methodists in defense of slavery, as well as the opposing views of abolitionists. This book provides a valuable insight into the complex relationship between religion and slavery during a tumultuous period in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
