Old but Great History Writing
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Davis is one of the most influencial slavery historians with us today. This book is one of his two best. His later works are meant to appeal more to the wider audience who prefer nooks to be like TV programs which require a two minute attention span.
