Freeing The Captives

Freeing The Captives, written by Judson Taylor and originally published in 1886, explores the complex intersection of faith and the struggle against slavery in the United States. This historical work provides valuable insight into the religious and moral arguments employed by abolitionists during the tumultuous Civil War period. Taylor delves into the narratives of individuals and communities deeply affected by the institution of slavery, shedding light on their experiences and the challenges they faced in seeking freedom and equality.

This book offers a compelling look at the social issues surrounding slavery from a religious perspective, making it a relevant resource for those interested in American history, African American studies, and the role of Christianity in social reform movements.
