ANTI-SLAVERY ALPHABET

It may not show between all of the fight scenes, but a lot of research goes into writing George Washington and the Revolutions of America. History is fascinating, and The Internet makes it easy to get a lot of view points very quickly. It's actually a lot harder to process than just getting knowledge from a text book or something. I wonder what life will be like when all our brains are linked together via the Internet. Hmm... will the robots have won by then?
Anyway, that's not the point. The point is that sometimes I find some really neat historical documents, like this, a children's alphabet book with a decidely political bend. Observe:

A is an Abolitionist—
A man who wants to free
The wretched slave—and give to all
An equal liberty.

B is a Brother with a skin
Of somewhat darker hue,
But in our Heavenly Father's sight,
He is as dear as you.

C is the Cotton-field, to which
This injured brother's driven,
When, as the white-man's slave, he toils,
From early morn till even.

....

X is for Xerxes, famed of yore;
A warrior stern was he
He fought with swords; let truth and love
Our only weapons be.

Y is for Youth—the time for all
Bravely to war with sin;
And think not it can ever be
Too early to begin.

Z is a Zealous man, sincere,
Faithful, and just, and true;
An earnest pleader for the slave—
Will you not be so too?
