Seller's Description:
Fine- Not Issued with a Dust Jacket. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. This book was first published in 1908 by Radcliffe College, 307 pages. "The period 1808-1831 has most commonly, perhaps, received the name of "the Period of Stagnation." It is credited with no aggressive anti-slavery work; it is rarely credited with even real anti-slavery sentiment of any sort. The anti-slavery workers are said to have trusted that the abolition of the African slave trade would do all the work necessary for the benefit of the slave, even to his ultimate emancipation, until William Lloyd Garrison with his trumpet-blast waked the sleepers and began the new era, whose history is familiar to all."
