Eighty-eight years: the long death of slavery in the United States, 1777-1865

The age of revolution: Impious prayers: slavery and the revolution; Half slave and half free: the founding of the United States

The early Republic: A house dividing: Atlantic slavery and abolition in the era of the early Republic; To become a great nation: caste and resistance in the age of emancipations

The age of immediatism: Minds long set on freedom: rebellion, metropolitan abolition, and sectional conflict; Ere the storm come forth: antislavery militance and the collapse of party politics

The Civil War and reconstruction: This terrible war: secession, Civil War, and emancipation; One hundred years: reconstruction

What peace among the whites brought.
