Book Details
First Sentence
"The general introduction has shown how the abolitionist crusade of 1830-1865 grew out of an earlier antislavery movement that was largely religious in origin and character and that lacked the aggressive, demanding resolve of William Lloyd Garrison, Lydia Maria Child, Frederick Douglass, and Wendell Phillips."
