Zusammenfassung: | ChronologyIntroduction -- Enslaving African women -- Enslaved women in the colonial era -- Enslaved women in the Revolutionary era and early Republic -- Enslaved women in the antebellum South -- Enslaved women in the Civil War -- Epilogue -- Documents. "For generations female slaves have played prominent roles throughout American history, but more than a century after Emancipation, no comprehensive overview of the history of the female American slave exists. In this book, historian Emily West offers the first comprehensive overview of the lives of enslaved women in America by placing their stories within the broader context of slavery in this country from the colonial era through to the end of the Civil War"--Provided by publisher |
