Widely recognized as "one of the nation's foremost scholars on the slave era" ("Boston Globe"), Bancroft Prize-winning historian Ira Berlin has changed the way we think about African American life in slavery and freedom. This classic volume, now available in a handsome new edition, is an indispensable resource for educators and general readers alike. First published to great acclaim in 1974, "Slaves Without Masters" established Berlin in his field and went on to win the National History Society's Best First Book Prize. It tells the moving story of the quarter of a million free black men and women who lived in the South before the Civil War, portraying "with careful scholarship, acute analysis, and admirable historical imagination" ("The New Republic") their struggle for community, economic independence, and education within an oppressive society.
