Slavery on Trial: Law, Abolitionism, and Print Culture - Studies in Legal History
Jeannine Marie DeLombard
Examines how debates over slavery in the three decades before the Civil War employed legal language to ""try"" the case for slavery in the court of public opinion via popular print media. This title argues that American literature of the era cannot be fully understood without an appreciation for the slavery debate in the courts and in print.
