The Baptists And Slavery, 1840-1845 (1913) - Mary Burnham Putnam - Bog

The Baptists And Slavery, 1840-1845 is a historical book written by Mary Burnham Putnam in 1913. The book explores the relationship between the Baptist church and slavery during the years 1840-1845 in the United States. Putnam analyzes the debates and discussions that took place within the Baptist community during this time, as many members were divided on the issue of slavery. Some Baptists believed that slavery was a moral and justifiable institution, while others argued that it was a sin and should be abolished. Putnam examines the various arguments made by both sides and provides insight into the complex and often contentious relationship between religion and slavery in America. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Baptist church, the abolitionist movement, and the role of religion in shaping American attitudes towards slavery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
