Christianity And Slavery is a book that provides a detailed analysis of the correspondence between two prominent Christian figures, Richard Fuller and Francis Wayland, on the topic of domestic slavery. The book delves into the arguments made by both men, examining their views on the morality and legality of slavery as well as their interpretation of scripture. The author, William Hague, provides historical context for the debate, highlighting the role that religion played in shaping attitudes towards slavery in the United States. Hague ultimately argues that the correspondence between Fuller and Wayland illustrates the complex and often contradictory ways in which Christianity was used to justify and condemn slavery in the antebellum South. This book offers a valuable insight into the intersection of religion and politics in the United States during a critical period in its history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
