The Anti Slavery Harp is a collection of poems, songs, and ballads compiled by William Wells Brown in the mid-19th century. The book was published in 1848 and aimed to raise awareness about the horrors of slavery and the need for its abolition. The collection includes works by well-known writers such as William Cowper, John Greenleaf Whittier, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, as well as lesser-known African American poets like Frances Ellen Watkins Harper and James Madison Bell. The poems and songs address a range of topics related to slavery, including the cruelty of slave owners, the longing for freedom, and the hope for a better future. The Anti Slavery Harp was an important tool in the fight against slavery and remains a significant work in the history of abolitionist literature.Fling out the Anti-slavery flag On every swelling breeze; And let its folds wave o'er the land, And o'er the raging seas, Till all beneath the standard sheet, With new allegiance bow.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
