The narrative describes the appalling day-to-day conditions of the over 2,700,000 men, women and children in slavery in the United States. It demonstrates how even prisoners - in the United States and in other countries - were significantly better fed than American slaves. 410 0$aDocSouth Books edition. 606 $aEnslaved persons$zSouthern States$xSocial conditions$2local 606 $aSlavery$zSouthern States 606 $aAfrican Americans$xSocial conditions 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aEnslaved persons$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aSlavery 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xSocial conditions. 676 $a326/.0973 700 $aWeld$b Theodore Dwight$f1803-1895.$01047980 712 02$aAmerican Anti-Slavery Society. 712 02$aUniversity of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.$bDocumenting the American South (Project) 712 02$aUniversity of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.$bLibrary. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457683203321 996 $aAmerican slavery as it is$92475933 997 $aUNINA
