Seller's Description:
Very Good. Size: 6x1x9; [Interesting provenance: From the private library of renowned historian, Philip D. Morgan. ] Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Small tears to jacket. The author presents an exploration of black health under slavery, showing how herbalism, conjuring, midwifery and other African American healing practices became arts of resistance in the antebellum South-and exploring how these practices invoked conflicts between the slave doctors and the whites who attempted to supervise their work. From the professional library of Dr. Philip D. Morgan, a professor of History at Johns Hopkins University. Morgan specializes in the African-American experience, the history of slavery, the early Caribbean, and the study of the early Atlantic world. Morgan is the author of more than 14 books on Colonial America and African American history. He has won both the Bancroft Prize and the Frederick Douglass Prize for his book Slave Counterpoint: Black Culture in the Eighteenth-Century Chesapeake and Lowcountry (1998).
