[SLAVERY] [AFRICAN-AMERICAN] SCRIPTURAL AND STATISTICAL VIEWS IN FAVOR OF SLAVERY
Richmond, Va. J. W. Randolph, 1856.
Hard Cover. Fourth Edition, with Additions. 8vo., in the publisher’s brown embossed cloth; [5]. 6-149 pages; some dampstaining to the rear board, with tidelines to the top corner of the last pages; with endpapers printed with publisher’s ads.~~Stringfellow was a Baptist pastor in Culpeper County and a slaveholder. He ends his treatise this way: “We cannot put an end to African slavery, if we would -- and we ought not, if we could -- until God opens a door to make its termination a blessing and not a curse. When He does that, slavery in this Union will end.”~~First published in 1841, this book is uncommon in commerce; it is not found in Blockson. (Savind 92870, Haynes 17808).
