Bag om Honor and Slavery

The 'honorable men' who ruled the Old South had a language that comprised apparently outlandish features, yet revealed much about the lives of masters and the nature of slavery. This book demonstrates the language of honor that embraced a system of phrases, gestures, and behaviors centered on values, asserting authority and maintaining respect.
