In the pamphlet, Spooner shows that none of the state governments of the slave states specifically authorized slavery, that the U.S. Constitution contains several clauses that are contradictory with slavery, that slavery was a violation of natural law, and that the intentions of the Constitutional Convention have no legal bearing on the document they created.

Excerpt from The Unconstitutionality of Slavery The True American, (cortland County, N. Says It is an imperishable and triumphant work. A law argument that would add to the fame of the most famed jurist, living or dead. The Bangor Gazette says It is indeed a masterly argument. No one, unprejudiced, who has supposed that that instrument (the constitution) contained guarantees of slavery, or who has had doubts upon the point, can rise from the perusal without feeling relieved from the supposition that our great national charter is one of slavery and not of free dom. And no lawyer can read it without admiring, besides its other great excellences, the clearness of its style, and its logical precision. The Hampshire Herald, (northampton) says It is worthy the most gifted intellect in the country. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Review of Lysander Spooner's Essay on the Unconstitutionality of Slavery: Reprinted From the Anti-Slavery Standard, With Additions Two years ago, Lysander Spooner, Esq. published an essay on the Unconstitutionality of Slavery. We shall but fulfill an old promise in reviewing the argument it contains. Events beyond our control have delayed us till now, which we regret only as it seems to have led some of Mr. Spooner's admirers to imagine that the delay proceeded from an unwillingness, on our part, to measure lances with so skillful an adversary. We exhort them, on the contrary, to believe that we have no innate antipathy to the idea of an Anti-Slavery Constitution; - that so far from being obstinately wedded to our own opinion, Mr. Spooner, or any one else, shall find in us a most ready, willing, and easy convert to a doctrine, which will restore to us the power of voting, - a right we much covet, - and a direct share in the Government of the country, a privilege we appreciate as highly as any one can. Only convince us fairly and we will outdo Alvan Stewart himself in glowing eulogy of this new-found virtue of the American Constitution. Indeed, if merely believing the Constitution to be Anti-Slavery would really make it so, we would be the last to stir the question. If the beautiful theories of some of our friends could oust from its place the ugly reality of a pro-slavery administration, we would sit quiet, and let Spooner and Goodell convert the nation at their leisure. But alas, the ostrich does not get rid of her enemy by hiding her head in the sand. Slavery is not abolished, although we have persuaded ourselves that it has no right to exist.
