Behind the statistics and grand narratives of American slavery lie voices, ledgers and petitions that rarely reach the surface. Here they are at last. Plantation And Frontier Documents; 1649-1863 Illustrative Of Industrial History In The Colonial & Ante Bellum South (Volume II) gathers a sweeping historical documents collection tracing the colonial American South through to the high tide of the antebellum southern states. Curated by eminent historian Ulrich B. Phillips, this primary source anthology offers unvarnished glimpses into plantation slavery history, the frontier plantation economy and the practical mechanics of southern industrial development as they were lived and recorded at the time. More than a compilation, this is an indispensable academic history reference for southern history students and for history researchers who need american slavery primary sources in one authoritative place, yet its clear organisation and vivid detail will reward any serious reader of history. The documents speak across two centuries of conflict, profit, coercion and adaptation, illuminating how land, labour, capital and power intertwined on the expanding frontier and in mature plantation districts alike. For anyone engaging with ulrich phillips slavery scholarship and its later reassessments, this volume remains a touchstone, preserving the evidence on which generations of debate have turned. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
