Slavery At Home is a book written by T. C. Newby Company and published in 1853. The book is a powerful and thought-provoking exploration of the issue of slavery in the United States during the mid-19th century. The author presents a detailed analysis of the various aspects of slavery, including its history, its impact on society, and the moral and ethical implications of the practice. Newby's writing is characterized by a strong sense of moral outrage, as he exposes the cruelty and injustice of slavery and its effects on both slaves and slave owners. He argues that slavery is not only a violation of basic human rights, but also a threat to the very foundations of American democracy. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of slavery. Newby begins by tracing the history of slavery in the United States, from its origins in the colonial period to its expansion in the southern states in the early 19th century. He then examines the economic and social factors that contributed to the growth of slavery, including the rise of the cotton industry and the political power of southern slave owners. Newby also explores the psychological effects of slavery on both slaves and slave owners, highlighting the dehumanizing nature of the institution and its impact on personal relationships. He argues that slavery creates a culture of violence and oppression that is detrimental to the moral and ethical fabric of society. Overall, Slavery At Home is a compelling and insightful work that provides a valuable perspective on one of the most important issues in American history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of slavery and its ongoing legacy in contemporary society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
