Description
1856 SLAVE States 1ed Journey in Seaboard American SLAVERY Economics Olmsted



“A Journey in the Seaboard Slave States” is a pre-Civil War account of slavery in the American South by Frederick Law Olmsted. Olmsted was most known for his landscape architecture and design of Central Park; however, he was also commissioned by the The New York Times to write a thorough account of the southern states – in which he concluded that slavery caused more economic and social harm in those states than any benefit could justify.
