A Sojourn in the City of Amalgamation, in the Year of Our Lord, 19--
A Sojourn in the City of Amalgamation, in the Year of Our Lord, 19-- is a dystopian novel published in New York during February 1835. It was written by Jerome B. Holgate (1812–93), by the pseudonym Oliver Bolokitten. The novel criticizes abolitionists by describing them as endorsers of "amalgamation," or interracial marriage. Its narrator encounters a future city, Amalgamation, where caucasians and blacks have intermarried solely for the sake of racial equality, resulting in "moral degeneration, indolence, and political and economic decline."[1][2]
The novel was self-published and printed.
