"In this purple book the 'nephew of my uncle' defends and upholds negro slavery in America, though perhaps, were it brought nearer home to his own business and bosom, like many other philosophers, he would have sung a different tune. Lest these sentiments, so repugnant to British feeling, might give to the book a baleful influence, a neutralizing appendage by another hand is added, combating the Prince's facts, inferences and opinions."Stevens.
