Description
New York: Putnams, 1871. Cloth Hard Cover. Good. Octavo. 341p. Sabin, Bibliotheca Americana, 1500-1826 includes this as an important book on race set forth as a novel but was a powerful indictment of racism (it was reprinted in 1972 by Books for Libraries.] Issued in a small print run and full of the ways African-Americans were viewed in the North just six yers after the end of the Civil War. The language has several racist words as well as expressing sentiments of the need for freedom extended to the blacks of the South. An important book on understanding the racial feelings in the era where rights were at first expanded and then withdrawn not only in the South but in the North. Wear along edges but a nice tight binding.
