by Martha Hodes
This book is the first to explore the history of a powerful category of illicit sex in America's past: liaisons between Southern white women and black men. In telling a series of stories about such liaisons in the years before the Civil War, Martha Hodes explores the complex ways in which white Southerners tolerated these relationships in the slave South, and shows how and why these responses changed with emancipation.
