""Christianity and Slavery"" by Joseph McCabe is a historical account of the relationship between Christianity and slavery. The book explores the role of the Christian church in the slave trade and the abolitionist movement.

He also highlights the voices of Christian abolitionists who challenged the church's complicity in the slave trade and worked to end the practice. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the complex relationship between Christianity and slavery, shedding light on the ways in which religion has been used both to justify and to oppose oppression throughout history.Contents: Paganism And Slavery, The Gospel And The Slave, The Christian Serf, Black Slavery, The Churches And The Workers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
