Description:

Campbell (history, U. of North Texas) examines slavery in the antebellum South's newest state and reveals how central slavery was to Texas history. He points out that although the area of slaveholding covered only two-fifths of the state by 1860, the proportion of slaveholders and slaves in Texas was comparable to that of Virginia, the oldest slaveholding state in the Union.
