Synopsis
Describes the condition and treatment of the slaves, as well as the economic consequences of their subjugation. Although focusing on the southern States, the author places slavery within a national context by examining the overwhelming political force of the abolitionist movement.

Reviews
Fogel spells out a moral indictment of slavery that supplements his coolly statistical 1974 Time on the Cross ; findings include a high infant mortality rate due to overworked pregnant women and slave hierarchies established by masters. ``Reworking some of the material in Time on the Cross , this incisive, probing reexamination is bound to provoke controversy,'' said PW.
