Cannibals All! Or, Slaves Without Masters
First published in 1857, Cannibals All! Or, Slaves Without Masters is one of the most provocative pro-slavery texts in American history. In this illustrated and carefully prepared edition, Ira Co presents Fitzhugh’s arguments in their original form, contextualized with historical imagery and formatting optimized for modern readers. Fitzhugh, a Virginia lawyer and social theorist, argued that slavery was a more humane and stable system than free-market capitalism, which he believed "enslaved" workers under the guise of liberty. This book is essential reading for scholars of American history, political theory, and the antebellum South, offering deep insight into the ideological conflicts that led to the Civil War. ⚠️ Editor’s Note: This edition preserves the original language and viewpoints for historical and educational purposes.
