Thome, James Armstrong (1813–1873) and Joseph Horace Kimball
Emancipation in the West Indies: A Six Months' Tour in Antigua Barbados and Jamaica in the Year 1837
i-xx-21-412 pages with large fold out frontispiece map and index. Small octavo 7 3/4" x 5" bound in original publisher's blind stamped decorative gray cloth with gilt lettering to spine. Second edition.<br /><br />James Thome was the son of a Kentucky slaveholder. But from early on he harbored uneasy feelings about slavery and in 1834 that uneasiness turned to unqualified abhorrence when as a theological student he attended an extended debate on the morality of slavery. Soon Thome was serving as a traveling agent for the American Anti-Slavery Society and by 1837 he and a companion Horace Kimball were conducting a study for the society on the results of slave emancipation in the British West Indies. In the report on this trip Emancipation in the West Indies Thome and Kimball offered evidence that firmly refuted the prevailing belief among abolitionists that slavery could only be eliminated gradually because most slaves would need to be prepared for life in freedom. As a result the American Anti-Slavery Society shifted from its advocacy of gradual emancipation to a demand for "unconditional freedom without delay."<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />Previous owner's neat old quil name on front pastedow; corners gently bumped; edge wear; corners and spine ends rubbed else about very good.

The Alarm Trumpet. A Discourse delivered at Berkshire Sept. 9 1813. the day of the National Fast appointed by the President on account of the War
Montpelier VT: Walton and Goss Printers 1813. Pamphlet. Poor. Pamphlet. 27 pp. An anti-France work blaming French culture and politics for the problems of the United States including the War of 1812. Truair saw debauchery everywhere in French thinking especially after the French Revolution and asserted Jefferson Madison and others were influenced by this. He accuses them of only being religious when it suits them and asserts they don't believe in religion. Truair also cites various Illuminati societies in the US as a source of ills. Overall a strongly worded piece that takes Jefferson and other heads of state to task for the perceived downfall of the US. POOR condition. The whole piece is very tattered torn and worn along the extremities with some loss to the front blank wrapper the title page and first page of text. This includes some loss of text. Overall very heavy tearing tattering creasing and wear. Previous owner's signature A. Bingham abounds in most blank areas indicating a they were enamored with the look of their name in script. Did we mention this was heavily worn Text block toned. A few stray notes present. If not already clear this is VERY worn. Sabin 97075. Walton and Goss, Printers unknown
