- W593077878 abstract "Slavery in United States clarifies institution of slavery in its historical context. Filler avoids all too prevalent literary attitude of either treating slavery as an unmitigated nightmare from past, or regarding it as a way of life which warmly repaid slave and slaveholder. He does not reduce issue to one of fact and figures, nor does he inject endless hypotheses and analogues. Rather, this finely etched volume encompasses human implications of slavery and its practices. It emphasizes distinguished and disreputable elements on both sides of slavery relationship, and in every part of United States. Slavery offers peculiar challenges to student of American life, past and present. It is unrealistic to avoid human implications of slavery and its practice. It is equally unhelpful to assume glib and partial viewpoints with respect to so all-embracing a system as slavery became. The cause of progress, no less than social science, is not advanced by indifference to patent facts. The civil libertarian who romanticizes black people indiscriminately, and lumps Jefferson Davis with Simon Legree may win popularity with enthusiasts and ideologues. But they will soon find themselves quaint and outmoded. The author reminds us that the safest approach to slavery is to determine what institution meant to country at large; why it flourished as it did, and how it came to be opposed and overthrown. The work includes high quality often neglected readings that permit reader to form his or her own views. It reveals best writing on all aspects of slavery issue, as well as analytic summations by contemporary historians and social researchers." @default.
