Antislavery and Abolition in Philadelphia considers the cultural, political and religious contexts shaping the long struggle against slavery and racial injustice in one of early America's most important cities. Comprised of nine scholarly essays by a distinguished group of historians -- including Ira Berlin, Gary Nash, Elizabeth Varon, David Waldstreicher, and Julie Winch -- the volume recounts the rise of the antislavery movement in Philadelphia from a marginalized status during the colonial era to a more widespread, if not universally popular, Civil War presence.
