Carey is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The work delves into the complexities of slavery in Maryland, addressing both its social implications and economic consequences. The author presents a critique of the institution while engaging with the societal attitudes toward slavery during a time of significant debate over emancipation. At the start of the text, the author introduces a correspondence with Dr. R. S. Stewart discussing the pressing issues surrounding slavery in Maryland and how the topic warrants public attention, especially amidst the backdrop of the upcoming elections. Carey expresses a belief that slaveholders, including himself, recognize the necessity for conversation on emancipation, which is described as a topic long enveloped in secrecy and taboo. He indicates a desire to explore the issue thoughtfully, aiming to unearth truths rather than instigate conflict, while hinting at potential pathways toward gradual emancipation. This establishes a foundation for an analytical yet empathetic exploration of one of America's most contentious social issues.
