- W6099658 abstract "University of Michigan historian Ulrich Bonnell Phillips (18771934) stood atop his profession in 1929. That year his book Life and Labor in the Old South received rave reviews. It already had won Little, Brown and Company's $2,500 cash prize for the best unpublished manuscript in American history. This accolade, in addition his ranking as the foremost historian of slavery and the Old South, led what Phillips termed very flossy job at University. This appointment, a chair in American history, meant more money, more prestige, and a very light teaching load. Phillips looked eagerly ahead possessing much more time than heretofore for authorship. Even before the details of the Yale job offer were announced, however, Phillips was awarded an Albert Kahn Foundation Fellowship. This prestigious $5,000 grant allowed Phillips make a yearlong world tour before joining the Yale faculty. As Kahn Fellow, Phillips sought study plantations worldwide, especially in Africa. The tour, he explained, indulged a wish of many years broaden my grasp of Negro traits, see the quality of primitive life where least disturbed, and test a few theories. In fact, Phillips's trip Asia and Africa provides an invaluable litmus test measure his racism. To what extent did Phillips's world tour reinforce his previous racial views? Or did his trip force Phillips redefine his notions of race? Unaware of this dimension of his forthcoming trip, and exuberant over his good fortune, Phillips wrote, 1929 is a year of grace indeed.2 In mid-August Phillips embarked westward by train from Ann Arbor, stopped at Berkeley, California, sailed Oahu, Hawaii, and then on Japan. En route Phillips remarked that though he would investigate plantations in Asia, he was determined to see how the Negroes handle the cotton crop in the forks of the Nile. Phillips's" @default.
