Why read it?
1 author picked Class Conflict, Slavery, and the United States Constitution as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book is a corrective. For over two hundred years Americans have been taught that enlightened slaveholders—and especially Jefferson and Madison—were initially the main champions of liberty and equality. But was that truly what happened? This book offers a different take on that story, and in my mind it deserves more attention than it has received.
From Leonard's list on why slaveholders once dominated American politics.
