By Samuel Seabury

Book Overview

American Slavery Distinguished From The Slavery Of The English Theorists is a book written by Samuel Seabury that explores the differences between American slavery and the slavery that was theorized by English philosophers. Seabury argues that American slavery was different from the idealized version of slavery that was discussed by English philosophers such as John Locke and Thomas Hobbes. He asserts that American slavery was based on race and was a brutal system that was designed to exploit and oppress African Americans. The book provides a detailed analysis of the history of slavery in America and the ways in which it differed from the theoretical model of slavery that was discussed by English philosophers.
