After emancipation, millions of Black Americans farmed the South under hard and unequal conditions. Kelsey's sociological study of 1903 examines their geographic spread, economic heritage, present situation, and prospects. A document of its time, valuable now as a record of rural life and the questions a reformer of that era asked. History captured on the land.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
