"Slave Nation"
SKU1402206979
This chilling history describes how a decision in the High Court of London in 1772 freeing a British slave so terrified the southern slaveholders that ironically they joined the American Revolution and the battle for freedom to ensure the preservation of slavery. Slave Nation offers a radically different view of the profound role that slavery played in the founding of our country. Written by two civil rights lawyers, this book uncovers powerful circumstantial evidence to support their theory that the American Revolution was about more than just taxes.
Paperback. 336 pages.
