American Anti-Slavery Almanac

[1] The yearly almanac compiled calendars and astronomical data with anti-slavery literature, art, and advertisements[2] in a small, neat pamphlet.

The 1843 edition included works from authors such as William Lloyd Garrison and Thomas Moore, as well as accounts of recent slave rebellions and quotes from political speeches supporting the abolition of slavery.

[3] The almanac did not call for uprising or violence, but rather served as a means to spread the word about the anti-slavery cause.

[4][5][6][7][8] The almanac had different editors and publishers under the American Anti-Slavery Society, depending on the edition and the publication location.

[13] The 1840 edition was published in New York City and Boston by the American Anti-Slavery Society.
