Slavery is a punishment inflicted by God upon a people or nation for their wickedness; and, 2. Slavery in this country was the providentially-arranged means whereby Africa was to be lifted from her deep degradation to a state of civil and religious liberty.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-4041198\"\u003eHowell Cobb\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Confederate Reprint Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/12\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.31d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780692301029\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 069230102X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POL\"\u003ePolitical Science\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POL010000\"\u003eHistory \u0026amp; Theory | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HIS\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HIS036040\"\u003eUnited States | 19th Century\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHowell Cobb was born in Jefferson County, Georgia in 1815, the oldest child of John and Sarah Cobb. In 1819, his family moved to Athens, where he would later graduate from the University of Georgia in 1834. He became a lawyer in 1836, and later served as a State Representative, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Secretary of the Treasury, and also as Governor of Georgia. When the Southern States seceded, Cobb became president of the Provisional Confederate Congress, playing a key role in the drafting of the new C.S. Constitution. He went on to serve in a military capacity as Major-General in the Confederate army, finally surrendering his troops to Union forces on April 20, 1865. He died from a heart attack while vacationing in New York in 1868.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Confederate Reprint Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44565960130797,"sku":"9780692301029","price":14.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_c5a25d24-330d-4c3f-996e-0ca8cbe062ba.jpg?v=1701872812","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/a-scriptural-examination-of-the-institute-of-slavery-in-the-united-states-with-its-objects-and-purposes-9780692301029","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
