Slavery Remembered

Tables presenting this data are set within a well-organized text that includes many quotations. Slavery remembered is an important contribution to the study of American slavery and, because of its brevity and clarity, an ideal classroom text for American history surveys as well as more specialized courses.Escott, Paul D. is the author of 'Slavery Remembered' with ISBN 9780807813409 and ISBN 0807813400.
