The "fugitive Slave Law" Of The United States: Shown To Be Unconstitutional, Impolitic, Inhuman, And Diabolical (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781022261211)

Published in 1850, this book by abolitionist Lysander Spooner vigorously argues against the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850, which required citizens to aid in the capture and return of runaway slaves. Spooner provides a scathing critique of the law's constitutional validity and moral implications, elevating the book to an important historical artifact of the fight against slavery.
