Encyclopedia > James Shepherd Pike

James Shepherd Pike was a prominent abolitionist in the time leading up to the War Between the States. Through his work as a journalist, he played a large role in the ending of slavery in the United States. He is best known today for his book The Prostrate State, South Carolina Under Negro Government (http://reactor-core.org/prostrate-state.html), which documented the aftermath of the War Between the States. This book destroyed his credentials; he was never taken seriously among the liberal-left again.
