It does not advocate racial discrimination or bigotry in today's society.** Few who agitated against Southern slavery in the Nineteenth Century had ever seen it with their own eyes. Himself an Abolitionist, Nehemiah Adams journeyed from Boston to the South to witness the horrors of slavery for himself. Instead of the expected scenes of cruel bondage, what he found was a well-ordered society in which the Negroes were mainly content, well-cared for by their masters, and even evangelized. The author warns his Northern brethren that a continued assault upon the South's peculiar institution would lead to a destruction of the Union and the ultimate ruin of the Black population. Of particular interest is the chapter written in response to Harriet Beecher Stowe's fictional romance, Uncle Tom's Cabin.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/0/69/227/110/0692271104_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "14.99", "online_price" : "14.99", "our_price" : "14.99", "club_price" : "14.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
