This important work of antebellum southern political thought defends the institution of slavery against its critics in the North. James Williams and John Baker Hopkins argue that slavery is not only a legally and ethically justifiable system, but also an essential component of southern society and economics. With its clear and forceful arguments, The South Vindicated is a must-read for anyone interested in the debates that led to the American Civil War.
