Theodore Dwight Weld: The Bible Against Slavery

This book was written 27 years before the Abolition of Slavery in America in 1865. Weld was a prime mover in the Abolitionist movement and his seminal work, 'Slavery As It Is - Testimony of 1000 Witnesses' was the inspiration for 'Uncle Tom's Cabin'. Weld uses many quotes and examples from the Bible in 'The Bible Against Slavery' and also the Ten Commandments - particularly Thou Shalt Not Steal and Thos Shalt Not Covet.
