Pornography is perhaps one of the most salient taboos within Western society. Despite pornography viewership being discouraged, with the advent of the internet, access to pornographic material has dramatically increased. Pornography addiction, alongside internet addiction as categorized within the DSM-V, has prompted the emergence of a new field: Porn studies. Now, while the development of pornography studies is warranted, as evident from its prevalence and widespread usage, the manner by which the field is growing prompts concern.

Octavo, 659 pages plus publisher's ads. Set in the 1830s on Falconhurst, a fictional Alabama plantation owned by Warren Maxwell and his son Hammond, Mandingo depicts the brutality, exploitation, and dehumanization of enslaved people in the antebellum South through the story of the Mandingo slave Ganymede ("Mede"). Kyle Onstott (1887-1966) began writing Mandingo at age sixty-five, drawing on "bizarre legends" of slave breeding and cruelty he had heard in youth. Having earlier co-authored a manual on dog breeding with his adopted son, he incorporated his son's anthropological research on West Africa while handwriting the manuscript, which his son edited. Published by the small Virginia firm Denlinger's in 1957, it ran 659 pages and sold approximately 2.7 million copies in hardcover, later exceeding 5 million in all U.S. editions. Onstott wrote no further novels but edited the next three books in the Falconhurst series, whose sequels were authored by Lance Horner and Henry Whittington (writing as Ashley Carter). A stage adaptation by Jack Kirkland opened at the Lyceum Theatre in New York in May 1961, starring Franchot Tone and Dennis Hopper; it closed after eight performances. The novel and play later formed the basis for the 1975 Paramount Pictures film Mandingo, directed by Richard Fleischer and starring James Mason, Susan George, Perry King, and Ken Norton, followed by a 1976 sequel "Drum," adapted from Onstott's subsequent novel of the same name. While black novelist Richard Wright praised Mandingo as "a remarkable book based on slave period documents," later critics have characterized it as sensationalist and offensive. This was Onstott's debut work.
