Publisher's Synopsis
The Judgment of Lord Stowell: Respecting the Slavery of the Mongrel Woman, Grace (1827) is a book written by John Haggard. The book is a legal analysis of the case of Grace, a woman of mixed race who was enslaved in the West Indies in the early 19th century. The case was brought before Lord Stowell, a prominent judge in England, who was asked to rule on whether Grace was legally a slave or a free person. The book examines Lord Stowell's decision and provides a detailed analysis of the legal arguments put forward by both sides. It also discusses the broader issue of slavery and the abolitionist movement in the early 19th century. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the legal and moral debates surrounding slavery at the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
