Description
1836. [Slavery & Abolition] CHILD, Lydia Marie. An Appeal in Favor of That Class of Americans Called Africans. New York: Published by John S. Taylor, 1836. Second edition. Illustrated with 2 plates. Coleridge quote on title page. In original blue cloth boards with embossing and gilt to spine. 8vo, 216 pages. Child was a vocal abolitionist, women's rights activist, anti-American expansionist, and proponent of racial equality amongst African and Native Americans. An Appeal in Favor of That Class of Americans Called Africans was the first written by a white woman in support of the immediate emancipation of slaves without compensation to their enslavers. Child begins by writing about the history of the slave trade as well as harrowing stories on it's detrimental and immoral faculties in order to engage readers to action. One illustrated plate showcases shackles and chains used on enslaved individuals. First published in 1833, Child's work was a prominent contribution to the abolitionist movement, and her writing influenced many notable figures, including Harriet Beecher Stowe and Frederick Douglass. Missing frontispiece, some foxing to pages, some wear to covers. Small tear affecting a few words in the fist first sentence on page 127. Binding is tight and text is clean and legible. Overall very good condition.
