Description
Slavery and the Constitution is a historical book written by William Ingersoll Bowditch in 1849. The book provides a detailed analysis of the United States Constitution and its relationship with slavery. Bowditch argues that the Constitution was created with the intention of protecting the institution of slavery and that the founding fathers were complicit in its perpetuation. He examines the various clauses and provisions of the Constitution that relate to slavery, including the three-fifths compromise, the Fugitive Slave Clause, and the Slave Trade Clause. Bowditch also explores the debates and controversies surrounding slavery during the Constitutional Convention and the ratification process. He concludes that the Constitution was a flawed document that failed to address the moral and ethical issues of slavery and ultimately contributed to the Civil War. Slavery and the Constitution is an important historical work that sheds light on the complicated and controversial relationship between slavery and the founding of 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.
