Slavery and the making of America

Freeman, Morgan (narrator.). James, Dante J. (television producer.). PBS Distribution (Firm), (publisher.).

Summary: The landmark four-part series documents the history of American slavery from its beginnings in the British colonies to its end in the Southern states, and through the years of post-Civil War Reconstruction. The series examines the integral role slavery played in shaping the new country's development, challenging the long-held notion that it was exclusively a Southern enterprise.
