Scott Heerman chronicles the long history of slavery in the heart of the continent and traces its many iterations through law and social practice. Arguing that slavery had no fixed institutional form, Heerman traces practices of slavery through indigenous, French, and finally U.S. systems of captivity, inheritable slavery, lifelong indentureship, and the kidnapping of free people. By connecting the history of indigenous bondage to that of slavery and emancipation in the Atlantic world, Heerman shows how French, Spanish, and Native North American practices shaped the history of slavery in the United States.The Alchemy of Slavery foregrounds the diverse and adaptable slaving practices that masters deployed to build a slave economy in the Upper Mississippi River Valley, attempting to outmaneuver their antislavery opponents. In time, a formidable cast of lawyers and antislavery activists set their sights on ending slavery in Illinois. Abraham Lincoln, Lyman Trumbull, Richard Yates, and many other future leaders of the Republican party partnered with African Americans to wage an extended campaign against slavery in the region. Across a century and a half, slaverys nearly perpetual reinvention takes center stage: masters turning Indian captives into slaves, slaves into servants, former slaves into kidnapping victims; and enslaved people turning themselves into free men and women....3680432The Alchemy of Slavery383532https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-alchemy-of-slavery-9780812295337/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3678980/df7cca47-82a6-4328-b5ee-d69fbb69bae4.jpg?v=638835308469230000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20189780812295337_W3siaWQiOiI5MDY0MDI1MS01MmNhLTQ2ZDYtYTg4Ni0yMTM3Y2JhYjA3NmUiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjUzMiwiZGlzY291bnQiOjI3LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjUwNSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDMtMjVUMTQ6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9780812295337_In this sweeping saga that spans empires, peoples, and nations, M.
