Wade Hampton: Confederate Warrior to Southern Redeemer (Civil War America)

audiobook Wade Hampton: Confederate Warrior to Southern Redeemer (Civil War America) by Rod Andrew in History

Description

This five-volume documentary collection--culled from an international archival search that turned up over 14;000 letters; speeches; pamphlets; essays; and newspaper editorials--reveals how black abolitionists represented the core of the antislavery movement. While the first two volumes consider black abolitionists in the British Isles and Canada (the home of some 60;000 black Americans on the eve of the Civil War); the remaining volumes examine the activities and opinions of black abolitionists in the United States from 1830 until the end of the Civil War. In particular; these volumes focus on their reactions to African colonization and the idea of gradual emancipation; the Fugitive Slave Law; and the promise brought by emancipation during the war.

Review
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Well Balanced Biography About an Important Southern Historical FigureBy Jack HeapeThis a great book. Well researched; and balanced I thought. Hampton's actual service during the civil war was the main reason I bought the book; because my great-great grandfather served with him in the cavalry. The post war history was new to me and I learned a lot. I had not realized that Hampton played such a huge part in the reconstruction era of South Carolina.
