Eighty-Eight Years: The Long Death of Slavery in the United States, 1777-1865 - Race in the Atlantic World, 1700-1900
Patrick Rael
Why did it take so long to end slavery in the US, and what did it mean that the nation existed eighty-eight years as a ""house divided against itself""? Rael immerses readers in the mix of social, geographic, economic, and political factors that shaped this unique American experience.
