''A Defense of Southern Slavery: Against the Attacks of Henry Clay and Alexander Campbell'' is a book written by Iveson L. Brookes. The book is a defense of slavery in the Southern United States and is a response to the criticisms of two prominent anti-slavery figures, Henry Clay and Alexander Campbell. The book argues that slavery is a necessary and beneficial institution for both slaves and slave owners. It claims that slaves are better off under the care of their owners than they would be on their own, and that slavery is a natural and justifiable part of the social order. The book also argues that the economic benefits of slavery are essential to the Southern economy and that abolition would be disastrous for the region. Overall, ''A Defense of Southern Slavery'' is a controversial and provocative work that sheds light on the complex and deeply ingrained attitudes towards slavery in the American South during the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
