About This Book

Teksti seuraa Pohjois-Amerikan siirtokuntien kehittymistä vapaaksi tasavallaksi ja selvittää pohjoisen ja etelän taloudellisia sekä yhteiskunnallisia eroja, jotka tekivät orjuudesta etelässä yleisen järjestelmän. Se kuvaa orjuuden oikeudellista asemaa ja päivittäisiä julmuuksia, esittelee orjuuden puolustajien perustelut sekä abolitionistisen liikkeen pyrkimykset herättää myötätuntoa ja edistää vapauttamista. Lopuksi käsitellään, miten poliittinen jakautuminen ja orjakysymys johtivat osavaltioiden eroamiseen liitosta ja sodalliseen ratkaisuun, jonka myötä syntyi erillinen eteläinen valtiokunta.
