A study in legal and constitutional history, it complements and forms a necessary predicate to the social history of emancipation that is the principal focus of contemporary Civil War scholarship. The relevance of the legal dimension in the struggle for black freedom is attested by the observation that many slaves "learned the letter of the law so they could seemingly recite from memory" passages from congressional measures prohibiting the return of escaped slaves to disloyal owners and guaranteeing their personal liberty.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 216mmItem Length: 140mmAuthor: Herman BelzGenre: HistoryBook Series: Reconstructing AmericaTopic: Society & Culture, Social Sciences, Law & PoliticsItem Weight: 13.8 ouncesgType: Social SciencesRelease Year: 2000 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
