First editions, with the exception of the year 1850, which is the third edition. The Liberty Almanac was a bit more sophisticated than the American Anti-Slavery Almanac its closest rival for the affections of the abolitionist. The articles are much more political than simply moral and their pages contain historical pieces that helped put the slavery question in context. These are exceptional copies.
