The American Slave Coast tells the horrific story of how the slavery business in the United States made the reproductive labor of "breeding women" essential to the expansion of the nation. The book shows how slaves' children, and their children's children, were human savings accounts that were the basis of money and credit. This was so deeply embedded in the economy of the slave states that it could be decommissioned only by emancipation, achieved through the bloodiest war in the history of the United States.

An important book
Revisado: 09-08-16
The information in this book provides the "why" behind so many of America's historical events. Absolutely well written.
The narrator, however, displays so little emotion, that a friend asked if it was being read by Siri. This and the narrator's constant mispronunciation of words took away from the writing itself.
