Stanley L. Engerman and Robert William Fogel - Time On The Cross: The Economics Of American Negro SlaveryNorton 1989 Paperback, 306pp. This book, originally published in 1974 by Little, Brown and Company, is a sweeping reexamination of the economic foundations of American Negro slavery. Based upon a vast research effort, this volume constitutes an entirely new portrayal of slavery's past. It challenges traditional assumptions about the material condition and management of slaves, their work habits, domestic welfare, and the economy of the antebellum South in general. In an Afterword added in 1989, the authors assess their findings in the light of recent scholarship and debate. Owner's Name inside. (ISBN: 9780393306200). Very Good.
