"This award-winning book succeeds admirably in its intention to offer 'a primer on the mechanics of the antebellum cotton trade that could be understood by the general public.' In 137 pages of lucid text, the author describes cotton-generated patterns of trade and credit and the men and money that made such flows possible." - Journal of Southern History "Once as prominent as the modern automobile industry to the economy, the antebellum cotton industry was responsible for thousands of jobs in the transportation, storing, grading, financing, and insuring of cotton either on its way to the European market or to the New England textile mills." - Academic Library Book Review" |
