Inhaltsangabe

A historical examination of race, slavery, and the South’s view of labor as a “law of nature” that shapes civilization.

This edition presents a scholarly argument about the relations between white and Black races in the Southern United States. It contrasts Northern and Southern approaches to race, slavery, and emancipation, and it discusses how ethnology, physiology, and historical experience are used to defend a specific social order.

• Learn how the author frames slavery in the South as distinct from ancient servitude and as part of a broader natural order.


• Explore claims about race, civilization, and the supposed destiny of the Negro in relation to white leadership.


• See how Biblical interpretation is used to support or challenge ideas about race and labor in this historical context.
