Description
The Confederacy's ideological cornerstone survived the end of the Civil War, but its impact persisted in the lives of Southern planters. Masters Without Slaves explores this pivotal moment when the institution of slavery was abolished, yet many planters struggled to adapt. This book delves into the complex relationships between former slave owners and their former slaves during the Reconstruction era. Roark examines how the legacy of slavery continued to shape the lives of these individuals, often in unexpected ways. Through a nuanced historical analysis, Masters Without Slaves sheds light on this critical period in American history, revealing the ongoing struggles of those who had once held power over others.
