Offering a gripping narrative of one of the most notorious
anti-abolition and anti-black riots to take place in the antebellum
U.S., Pennsylvania Hall: A 'Legal Lynching' in the Shadow of the
Liberty Bell provides a thorough explanation of the complexities of
American antislavery and describes a society that was struggling to
recreate itself in the wake of emancipation. Part of the Critical
Historical Encounters series, Pennsylvania Hall focuses on the
differences between gradual and immediate emancipation and the
complexities of "immediatism." After describing the tensions
between competing abolition camps, author Beverly Tomek examines
the way in which the Garrisonian branch of the movement used the
press effectively to shape both the contemporary and historical
narrative. She demonstrates how Pennsylvania-the birthplace of
American abolition-remained relevant to the cause. Illustrating the
complexity of the Abolition movement in the North and how internal
struggles hampered the movements' goals, Pennsylvania Hall's strong
narrative style provides an in-depth analysis while remaining
approachable for students.
