More About This Textbook
Overview
This book, originally published in 1974 by Little, Brown and Company, is a sweeping reexamination of the economic foundations of American Negro slavery. Based upon a vast research effort, this volume constitutes an entirely new portrayal of slavery's past. It challenges traditional assumptions about the material condition and management of slaves, their work habits, domestic welfare, and the economy of the antebellum South in general.
Editorial Reviews
New York Times Book Review
“With one stroke [this book] turned around a whole field of interpretation and exposed the frailty of history done without science.”Product Details
