Have a look at the work of David Brion Davis, particularly The Problem of Slavery in the Age of Revolution, 1770-1823. His work explores the cultural shifts in causing rising abolitionist sentiment, using plenty of evidence for his case. Although it is a very academic work, it can be still quite easy to read.
If you are interested in the topic overall then I'd recommend taking a look at Eric Williams' thesis Capitalism and Slavery, as well as criticisms and critiques of his work as it greatly altered the history of abolition (with a particular focus on British abolition).
