Reflections on the causes that led to the formation of the Colonization Society : with a view of its probable results : under the following heads: the increase of the coloured population; the origin of the Colonization Society; the manumission of slaves in this country; the declarations of legislatures, and other assembled bodies, in favour of the Society; the situation of the colonists at Monrovia and other towns; moral and religious character of the settlers; the soil and climate of Liberia, its productions and commerce; the advantages to the free coloured population by emigration to Liberia; the character of the natives of Africa, before the irruption of the barbarians; the effects of the colonization on the slave trade--with a slight sketch of that nefarious and accursed traffic / by M. Carey.
