“Slavery will be overthrown before a majority of the people shall have called voluntarily, and on the score of principle, for its abolition.” -William Lloyd Garrison, 1835

“I have no purpose directly or indirectly to interfere with the institution of slavery where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so.”-Abraham Lincoln, First Inaugural Address, 1861

William Lloyd Garrison predicted emancipation and struggled for thirty-five years to achieve it. Abraham Lincoln did not want to free the slaves, but he did. This book tells the story of the important roles these two men played in the abolition of American slavery. Robert MacDougall has taught American History for forty-nine years. His teaching mission is to make history as understandable and enjoyable as possible, and to encourage people to apply it to their own lives and times.
