American Liberties And American Slavery: Morally And Politically Illustrated is a book written by Seymour B. Treadwell. The book explores the contradictions between American ideals of liberty and equality and the reality of slavery in the United States. Treadwell argues that the institution of slavery is a moral and political evil that is incompatible with the principles of democracy and freedom. He examines the history of slavery in the United States, the legal and economic systems that supported it, and the social and cultural attitudes that perpetuated it. The book also considers the role of religion in justifying slavery and the efforts of abolitionists to end it. Treadwell's analysis offers a critical perspective on American history and raises important questions about the relationship between power, justice, and morality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
