The Antislavery Struggle and Triumph in the Methodist Episcopal Church

The struggle against slavery was one of the defining moral and political battles of 19th-century America, and the Methodist Episcopal Church played a pivotal role in this struggle. In this groundbreaking work, Daniel Denison Whedon and Lucius C. Matlack trace the history of the church's involvement in the antislavery movement, from initial ambivalence to full-throated advocacy for abolition.
