Letters On Slavery: Addressed To The Cumberland Congregation, Virginia (1833) is a collection of letters written by John D. Paxton, a Presbyterian minister, to his congregation in Cumberland, Virginia. The letters discuss the issue of slavery, which was a contentious topic in the United States during the early 19th century. Paxton argues that slavery is morally wrong and goes against the teachings of Christianity. He also discusses the economic and political implications of slavery, and how it harms both slaves and slave owners. The book provides a unique perspective on the issue of slavery, as it comes from a religious leader who is advocating for the abolition of slavery. It also sheds light on the debates and discussions that were happening in the United States during this time period. Overall, Letters On Slavery: Addressed To The Cumberland Congregation, Virginia (1833) is an important historical document that provides insight into the moral, economic, and political implications of slavery in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
