Lectures On The Philosophy And Practice Of Slavery, As Exhibited In The Institution Of Domestic Slavery In The United States: With The Duties Of Masters To Slaves (1857) is a book written by William A. Smith. The book is a collection of lectures on the topic of slavery and its practice in the United States, particularly in the context of domestic slavery. The author explores the philosophical underpinnings of slavery, as well as its practical implementation and the responsibilities of slave masters towards their slaves. The book was written at a time when the issue of slavery was a hotly debated topic in American society, and it offers a unique perspective on the subject from a pro-slavery standpoint. It is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the attitudes and beliefs of those who supported the institution of slavery in the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
