About the author

England) Union and Emancipation Society (Manchester

Formed in Manchester during the American Civil War, this anti-slavery organization rallied support in Britain for the Union cause and for emancipation in the United States. Its published addresses and letters capture how strongly people in industrial Lancashire connected their own hardships with the fight against slavery abroad.
