No Property in Man: Slavery and Antislavery at the Nation’s

No Property in Man: Slavery and Antislavery at the Nation’s Founding (The Nathan I. Huggins lectures Book 18)

Driving straight to the heart of the most contentious issue in American history, Sean Wilentz argues controversially that, far from concealing a crime against humanity, the U.S. Constitution limited slaveryâ€™s legitimacyâ€”a limitation which in time inspired the antislavery politics that led to Southern secession, the Civil War, and Emancipation.
