Förlagets beskrivning
History of Owen Lovejoy's religious and political participation in the
antislavery movment from 1838 to 1864. This is the first comprehensive
collection of the speeches of Owen Lovejoy (1811-64). After the assassination
of his brother, Elijah, for printing an antislavery newspaper, instead of
seeking revenge on the murderers, Lovejoy chose to help eradicate the system of
racial slavery. Including sermons, campaign speeches, open letters, and his
congressional exchanges and addresses, His Brother's Blood offers a colorful
and important perspective on the turmoil leading up to the Civil War and the
excitement in Congress that produced universal emancipation.
