Additional information
by Thomas Clarkson (Author), James Henry Hammond (Author)
A fiery defense of slavery and the southern way of life, Hammond's letters to Clarkson offer a rare and candid glimpse into the mind of a die-hard defender of the 'peculiar institution'. Despite their controversial and offensive content, these letters remain a valuable primary source for the study of slavery and its impact on American society and politics.
