Slavery, the Civil Law, and the Supreme Court of Louisiana
Judith Kelleher Schafer
In what may be the most impressive research to date of state supreme court records, this study analyses the evolution of Louisiana's slave laws from the territorial period to the Civil War. Schafer presents concise case histories, stories that are fascinating and at times heartbreaking in the particulars they reveal about slaves' existence.
