Opis

The first in-depth examination at race relations in Arkansas during the forty years after the Civil War. Graves focuses on the gradual adjustment of black and white Arkansans to the new status of the freedom, in both society and law, after generations of practicing the social etiquette of slavery. Graves shows how Arkansas was one of the most progressive states during Reconstruction in desegregating its people.
