Sommario/riassunto

A history of how abolitionism evolved from an elite and conservative movement to a radical, grassroots reform cause. It traces the development of the abolitionist movement from the 1770's to the 1830's, covering the attitudes and actions which made it the radical cause we think of it as today.
