The Curse: Or The Position In The World�������s History Occupied By The Race Of Ham is a book written by Increase Niles Tarbox in 1864. The book is a historical and theological analysis of the biblical story of Ham, the son of Noah, and his descendants. Tarbox argues that Ham and his descendants were cursed by God and that this curse explains the position of African Americans and other people of color in the world. The book examines the history of slavery and racism in the United States and argues that these practices are justified by the biblical story of Ham. Tarbox's work was controversial at the time of its publication and has been criticized for its racist and ethnocentric views. However, the book remains an important historical document that sheds light on the attitudes and beliefs of some Americans during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
