Felix Ruston of Port Budeon reviews abolitionist and northern bias in Webster’s historical notes on slavery. He defends southern labor use and contrasts ancient Greek and Roman practices with colonial era actions by Pilgrims, Massachusetts, and Narragansett wars to argue slaveholding varied by era and region. He urges clearer historical accuracy.
