"Thoroughly enjoyed it. I hadn't really every thought before about slavery in the U.S. being uniquely different from slavery elsewhere. A great history book."
"This is an amazing synthesis of other works on slavery in America, and the best, most accessible one-volume treatment of the subject. Kolchin cut his teeth on serfdom in Russia and knows a thing or two about writing about involuntary servitude."
