Book Synopsis Free Blacks in Norfolk, Virginia, 1790-1860 by : Tommy Bogger
Download or read book Free Blacks in Norfolk, Virginia, 1790-1860 written by Tommy Bogger and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Very few studies of free blacks have attempted to interpret the actions and events affecting them from their own perspectives. At the same time. the search for understanding the antebellum black experience in the South usually has centered on slaves. In Free Blacks in Norfolk, Virginia, 1790-1860, Tommy L. Bogger portrays lives somewhere between slavery and freedom. A free black community of skilled artisans and semi-skilled laborers emerged in Norfolk around 1800. Some free blacks earned the respect of leading white businessmen, and many enjoyed easy access to credit and steady employment. They showed no hesitation in suing recalcitrant debtors -- black or white -- and until 1805 they could count on the cooperation of court officials in helping them to collect. But from then on. free blacks experienced a steady decline in status that continued throughout the antebellum period. Legal restraints were placed on them at the same time that Norfolk's economy stagnated. and white immigrants arriving in the 1830s entered fields once monopolized by blacks. By the 1850s the free black community was sunk in hopelessness and despair. Free Blacks in Norfolk, Virginia, 1790-1860 discusses the active roles that blacks played in creating their community, contradicting prevalent images of free blacks at the mercy of whites. While previous studies of Virginia's free blacks have focused on Richmond or Petersburg, developments in Norfolk's free black community also merit analysis. Norfolk also offers the advantage of a population large enough to provide a reliable data base yet small enough to preserve the stories of individual lives. Those interested in African-American history, Virginia history, orthe South in general will find this book a valuable new resource.

Book Synopsis Virginia Before and During the War by : Henry Farmer
Download or read book Virginia Before and During the War written by Henry Farmer and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-06-23 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the rarest of the "Lost Cause" writings of the post-American Civil War period is Henry H. Farmer's Virginia Before and During the War. Published privately by him in 1892, it received a limited distribution and quickly fell into oblivion as longer, more well publicized works about the war overshadowed it. But Farmer's modest volume stubbornly refuses to take a back seat to its larger, more powerful cousins. Its depictions of Danville, Virginia, plantation life in the 1850s and how that life came crashing down during the dramatic years of 1861 to 1865 are some of the best that the literature of the period has to offer. Perhaps most interesting are the arguments of its protagonists for and against slavery, secession and war - arguments that Farmer, whose sentiments originally lay with the South (but not with secession), heard and knew first-hand. This Clarion Publishing edition contains a foreword to the new edition and a biography of H.H. Farmer.
Book Synopsis Emancipation in Virginia's Tobacco Belt, 1850-1870 by : Lynda J. Morgan

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important contribution to the history of the Civil War and Reconstruction era, this book reveals the crucial and remarkably varied roles that African-Americans in Virginia's tobacco belt played in the momentous changes wrought by the transition from slavery to freedom. The state with the largest number of slaves on the eve of the Civil War, Virginia had undergone a peculiar set of economic developments that made its black population, both enslaved and free, especially diverse. A significant minority had made contact, typically through slave hiring, with a form of wage labor; still others had engaged in independent production and exchange. Because they shared their experiences with the slave majority who remained on the plantations and farms, hired slaves and independent producers helped create a nascent antebellum market culture, which in turn both undermined and buttressed slavery, laid the foundation for Confederate defeat, and influenced the introduction of free labor in the immediate postemancipation period. Basing her study on extensive research in letters, family papers, and public documents, Lynda J. Morgan traces the complexities of the story from the prewar decade, when Virginia's plantation heartland served as a hired slave-labor reserve for its eastern industry and private households; through secession and the Civil War, when Virginia Confederates failed to adapt African-American labor to their wartime purposes; and, finally, to emancipation and its aftermath, when freed slaves in the tobacco belt infused, with varying degrees of success, their previous knowledge and experience into the state's postwar economy, which was moving toward unbridled capitalist development. Morgan demonstrates that by marketing their labor many former slaves successfully imposed some of their preindustrial notions of property and work upon the new pattern. Thus, freed slaves in the Virginia tobacco belt were often able to adapt to postwar conditions more rapidly than their counterparts in the Cotton South. As Morgan notes, many other historical studies of emancipation have pivoted on the question of whether the Civil War and the elimination of slavery fundamentally altered the character of southern society. While stressing that these events were in fact nothing short of revolutionary, Morgan's study suggests that elements of continuity were also vitally important. The result is a nuanced view of the postwar South and of the nature of slavery and the culture it produced.
