Uncle Sam's Emancipation

Why did Christians preach about loving their neighbors and yet keep their fellow humans as slaves? Ups and downs with Stowe' s own family, and the inhumanity of slavery are the focus of this collection of essays. The obvious inequality spurred Stowe to get involved with the ' Fugitive Slave Act' which came to be important for the emancipation of slaves. Written with careful and detailed insight, this book is recommended for both history-lovers and curious souls because of its compelling portrayal of life and slavery in the South.
