African Americana Slavery Abolition Poetry. [African Americana][Slavery][Abolition][Poetry]. Rhymes for the Times: Original Poems on Popery, Slavery and Intemperance, By A Protestant.
[title, blank], i-iv, [5]-119 [120]. Good: boards heavily dusted with scattered soiling, front hinge cracked but holding by cords, dampstain to most leaves along top edge, not affecting text, modern owner name in ballpoint to front paste down which also has pencil scribblings, two splotches of stains to page 61. A wonderfully clever and flippant collection of poetry with five entries related to abolition. In one, the author wrote, Alas for Pierce! /Alas for all who slaves enthrall!/The strenuous efforts being made/To introduce to Kansas/The nero's toil against free soil, /The more their guilt enhanses [sic]. The author also shares thoughts on James Buchanan and the Dred Scott decision. OCLC locates 28 holdings with 10 of those in the United States, none in the trade as of May, 2019.
