Lundy, Benjamin
Lundy, Benjamin. The War in Texas; a review of the facts and circumstances showing that this contest is a crusade against Mexico, set on foot and supported by slaveholders, land-speculators, &c. in order to re-establish, extend, and perpetuate the system of slavery and the slave trade. Philadelphia: Merrihew and Gunn, 1837.
Benjamin Lundy argues that the Texas Revolution was a premeditated effort by slaveholders in the United States to extend the practice.
