A VIRTUALLY PRISTINE COPY (SLAVERY AND ABOLITION.) [CARLETON, GEORGE W.] The Suppressed Book about Slavery, prepared for Publication in 1857. Engraved frontispiece and seven striking plates, printed on yellow paper. An exceptional copy, in as close to its original condition as we have ever seen. New York: Carleton, 1864
first edition. A book about the peculiar institution, published in perfect timing with the 1864 Presidential campaign. Clearly a pro-Lincoln man, George Carleton, publisher and author of this "sensational" book, lays out in the most lurid detail the "suppressed" and horrible facts about the buying, selling and exploitation of human beings.
