''The Slave in History: His Sorrows and His Emancipation'' is a historical account of slavery and the experiences of enslaved individuals throughout history. Written by William Stevens and published in 1904, the book explores the brutality of slavery and the struggles of those who were enslaved, including the physical and emotional abuse they endured. Stevens also delves into the efforts made to abolish slavery and the eventual emancipation of slaves in various parts of the world. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the history of slavery, from ancient civilizations to modern times, and sheds light on the lasting impact of this dark period in human history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
