Paperback. Condition: New. Free people of color were both architects of equal rights and active participants in the Civil War, on and off the battlefield.

Paperback. Condition: New. An authoritative study of the free people of color in the largest state of the Old South. Virginia was the state with the most enslaved people prior to the Civil War. It was also at one time the state with the most resident free people of color-free from the legal disabilities specifically associated with enslavement but still denied many basic civil rights.
