Slaveholding in North Carolina: An Economic View is a comprehensive analysis of the economic impact of slavery in North Carolina during the antebellum period. The author, Rosser Howard Taylor, explores the ways in which slavery shaped the state's economy and influenced its social structure. He examines the economic benefits of slavery for slaveholders, as well as the costs and consequences for slaves and non-slaveholding whites. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the economic history of North Carolina, including its agricultural and industrial development, and the role of slavery in these industries. The second part delves deeper into the economic impact of slavery, examining its effects on the state's labor market, land ownership patterns, and wealth distribution. The final part looks at the social and political consequences of slavery, including its influence on the state's legal system, education, and religion.Throughout the book, Taylor draws on a wide range of primary sources, including census data, plantation records, and contemporary accounts. He also incorporates insights from other scholars to provide a nuanced and comprehensive view of the economic and social impact of slavery in North Carolina. Slaveholding in North Carolina: An Economic View is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of slavery and its impact on the American South. It provides a detailed and insightful analysis of the economic and social consequences of slavery in North Carolina, and sheds light on the complex and often contradictory ways in which slavery shaped the state's history and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
