The Rise and Fall of Slavery in the New World
A definitive history by a writer deeply immersed in the subject, Inhuman Bondage        offers a compelling narrative that links together the profits of slavery, the pain        of the enslaved, and the legacy of racism. The heart of the book looks at slavery in        the American South, describing black slaveholding planters, the rise of the Cotton        Kingdom, the daily life of ordinary slaves, the highly destructive internal,        long-distance slave trade, the sexual exploitation of slaves, the emergence of an        African-American culture, and much more. It is the ultimate portrait of the dark        side of the American dream. Yet it offers an inspiring example as well--the story of        how abolitionists, barely a fringe group in the 1770s, successfully fought, in the        space of a hundred years, to defeat one of human history's greatest evils.
