Produktbeschreibung

A Rood: On the Question, What Are the Evils Inseparable From Slavery," Which Was Referred to by Mrs. Stowe, in Uncle Tom´s Cabin It is proposed in the publication of this pamphlet to afford the public an opportunity of judging of the merits of the unhappy controversy which has grown out of a paragraph from the pen of the Rev. Joel Parker, D.D., and referred to by Mrs. Stowe on page 191 of "Uncle Tom´s Cabin." The facts, concisely stated, are the following. In the autumn of 1846, the Rev. Mr. Rood, in his weekly correspondence to the New York Evangelist wrote an article reviewing the action of the Synod of Virginia on the subject of Slavery.
