A classic study of the history of slavery and men's changing attitudes to it, from antiquity to the early 1770s. This book won the 1967 Pulitzer Prize. This classic Pulitzer Prize-winning book depicts the various ways the Old and the New Worlds responded to the intrinsic contradictions of slavery from antiquity to the early 1770s, and considers the religious, literary, and philosophical justifications and condemnations current in the abolition controversy.
