About this product

Product Information

In The Second Great Emancipation , Donald Holley uses statistical and narrative analysis to demonstrate that farm mechanization occurred in the Delta region of Arkansas, Louisiana, and Mississippi after the region's population of farm laborers moved away for new opportunities. Rather than pushing labor off the land, Holley argues, the mechanical cotton picker enabled the continuation of cotton cultivation in the post-plantation era, opening the door for the civil rights movement, while ushering a period of prosperity into the South.

Item in very good condition. However, packaging was too small and not sturdy or insulated enough for the size of the book; the corner of the packaging arrived torn. Fortunately, item was undamaged other than a tear in the dust jacket. Good value for money.
