""A True Story Of The Christiana Riot"" is a historical non-fiction book written by David R. Forbes and first published in 1898. The book recounts the events of the Christiana Riot, which took place in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania in 1851. The riot was a violent clash between a group of African American fugitive slaves and their white supporters, and a group of slave catchers who had come to apprehend the runaways. The book provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the riot, the riot itself, and the subsequent trials of the participants. It also explores the broader historical context of the riot, including the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 and the growing tensions between abolitionists and pro-slavery advocates in the United States. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of slavery and abolitionism in the United States, as well as the ongoing struggle for racial justice and equality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
