"A is for Abolitionist, a man who wants to free the wretched slave -- and give to all an equal liberty, B is a Brother with a skin of somewhat darker hue, But in our Heavenly Father's sight, he is as dear as you..." From A through Z, The Ant-Slavery Alphabet Book outlines the evils of slavery and provides insight on the abolitionist movement and the lives of slaves in the 1800s. Originally created by the Philadelphia Female Anti-Slavery Society in the 1800s to raise awareness about slavery and equality, this seminal document is now repackaged and available to modern readers. This is an important part of U.S. history that will be of interest to many. Updated with 50 new illustrations and photographs, this book, reminding us of one of the most vital periods in American history, is the perfect gift for the modern activist, or history buff.
