SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Thomas C. Buchanan paints a picture of 19th-century Mississippi, documenting the experiences among slaves and free blacks who lived and worked on the lower decks and along the river during slavery, through the Civil War, and into emancipation. He explores their efforts to link riverside African American communities in the North and South.
