Book Descriptions:

Bridging womens history, the history of the South, and African American history, this book makes a bold argument about the role of white women in American slavery. Historian Stephanie E. Jones-Rogers draws on a variety of sources to show that slaveowning women were sophisticated economic actors who directly engaged in and benefited from the Souths slave market. Because women typically inherited more slaves than land, enslaved people were often their primary source of wealth. Not only did white women often refuse to cede ownership of their slaves to their husbands, they employed management techniques that were as effective and brutal as those used by slaveowning men. White women actively participated in the slave market, profited from it, and used it for economic and social empowerment. By examining the economically entangled lives of enslaved people and slaveowning women, Jones-Rogers presents a narrative that forces us to rethink the economics and social conventions of slaveholding America
