This study of the British Unitarians is the story of this group's thirty-year war against the master sin of the world--American slavery. Focusing on the group known as the Garrisonians, the author examines their racial views, their attitudes toward the Civil War, their relations with the American antislavery movement, and the difficult problem of the relation between religious commitment and social activism.
