""Slaveholding Not Sinful"" is a book written by Samuel Blanchard How in 1856, which argues that slavery is not a sin but rather a punishment for man's sin. The author uses biblical references to support his argument and presents slavery as a necessary institution for the proper functioning of society. How also suggests that the gospel of Christ provides a remedy for the negative aspects of slavery, such as cruelty and mistreatment of slaves. The book is a controversial and polarizing work that reflects the attitudes and beliefs of the time regarding the institution of slavery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
