George Bourne (1780–1845) was a 19th-century American abolitionist and editor credited as the first public proclaimer of "immediate emancipation without compensation" of American slaves. ==Life== George was born on June 13, 1780 in Westbury, Wiltshire, England. In 1804 he migrated to New York and became the editor and co-owner of the ''Baltimore Daily Gazette'' in 1806. He migrated in 1810 to Virginia and became a Presbyterian minister. In 1816, he wrote and printed at home ''The Book and Slavery Irreconcilable'' by a citizen of Virginia. In his journalistic career, he wrote over twenty-two books including biographies of Rev John Wesley and Napoleon Bonaparte. His book on Thomas Jefferson and his Presidency has been lost. He was one of the founders of the American Anti-Slavery Society and worked fervently at developing an American Protestant alliance of churches. He also was the editor of various publications dealing with anti-slavery and poperism most notably the ''Christian Intelligencer'' at the time of his death in New York City on November 20, 1845.
