Antislavery Recollections: In A Series Of Letters Addressed To Mrs. Beecher Stowe is a book written by George Stephen. It is a collection of letters that Stephen wrote to Harriet Beecher Stowe, the author of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, during the 1850s. The letters describe Stephen’s experiences as a slave trader and his eventual conversion to the antislavery movement. Stephen provides a firsthand account of the horrors of the slave trade and the impact it had on both slaves and slave traders. He also discusses the role of religion in the antislavery movement and the importance of education in promoting freedom and equality. The book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the complex issues surrounding slavery and the fight for abolition in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint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.
