N2  - "Americans tend to assume that modern historiography has produced a full and complete understanding of slavery in the United States, as a shameful pre-modern institution, existing in isolation from America's later success. But while we have long since rejected the idealistic depiction of happy slaves and paternalistic masters, we have not yet begun to grapple with the full extent of slavery's horrors, or its link to the expansion of the country, the political battles that caused the Civil War, or the growth of our modern capitalist economy."--Provided by publisher.
