This collection of letters exchanged between South Carolina Senator James Henry Hammond and prominent Maryland lawyer John H.B. Latrobe provides a unique window into the pro-slavery arguments advanced by southern politicians in the years leading up to the Civil War. Hammond, a fervent defender of slavery, engages in detailed legal and political discussions with Latrobe, who challenges many of his assumptions and offers alternative perspectives on the issues.
