Southern Quakers and Slavery: A Study in Institutional History is a book written by Stephen B. Weeks that explores the history of Quakers in the American South and their relationship with slavery. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the Quaker community's response to slavery, including their efforts to abolish the practice and their struggles to reconcile their beliefs with the economic and social realities of the time. Weeks examines the various ways in which Quakers in the South interacted with slavery, including their involvement in the Underground Railroad, their efforts to educate and convert slaveholders, and their involvement in the abolitionist movement. The book also explores the tensions that arose within the Quaker community as a result of their stance on slavery, including conflicts between abolitionist and pro-slavery factions.Throughout the book, Weeks draws on a wide range of primary sources, including Quaker meeting minutes, letters, and diaries, to provide a detailed and nuanced picture of the role that Quakers played in the struggle against slavery in the American South. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of slavery, abolitionism, and the Quaker community in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
