Slavery in Missouri, 1804-1865 is a historical book written by Harrison Anthony Trexler. The book explores the history of slavery in Missouri, a state that was a major center of slavery in the United States during the 19th century. The author provides a detailed account of the economic, political, and social factors that contributed to the rise of slavery in Missouri, as well as the impact of slavery on the lives of enslaved people and their owners.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a specific period in the history of slavery in Missouri. The first chapter provides an overview of the early years of slavery in the state, from its establishment in 1804 until the 1820s. The second chapter focuses on the period of rapid expansion of slavery in Missouri during the 1830s and 1840s, as the state became a major center of slave trading and transportation.The third chapter examines the impact of the Civil War on slavery in Missouri, including the role of Missouri in the Union and Confederate armies, the Emancipation Proclamation, and the eventual abolition of slavery in the state. The final chapter provides an analysis of the legacy of slavery in Missouri, including the ongoing struggles for racial equality and justice.Throughout the book, Trexler draws on a wide range of primary and secondary sources, including newspapers, diaries, letters, and government records, to provide a comprehensive and nuanced account of slavery in Missouri. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of slavery in the United States, as well as the ongoing struggles for racial justice and equality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
