Böcker av Kenneth M. Stampp

Winner of the Lincoln Prize Stampp's classic study of American slavery as a deliberately chosen, practical system of controlling and exploiting labor is one of the most important and influential works of American history written in our time. "A thoughtful and deeply moving book. . . . Mr. Stampp wants to show specifically what slavery was like, why it existed, and what it did to the American people."-Bruce Catton

One of the most scholarly and provocative books written in this much worked-over period. - Avery O. Craven, Saturday Review
