Black Prisoners and Their World, Alabama, 1865-1900 by Mary Ellen Curtin PDF Summary

Book Description: This book traces the history of black prisoners in Alabama and their connections to and participation in the labor movement among miners in the late 19th century. Curtin (U. of Essex, UK) explores the convict- leasing system that ran most of Alabama's mines and its links to the African American transition out of slavery, illustrating the parallel transition from prisoner to coal miner.
