DeBow’s pamphlet The Interest in Slavery of the Southern Non-Slaveholder (published 1860), one of several works defending the Southern slave system written in the decades leading up to the American Civil War. Based on your reading of this text, how would you characterize DeBow’s view of the place of slavery in antebellum Southern society? How did he portray the relationship of white non-slaveholders to slavery? In DeBow’s view, how did slavery shape Southern society and culture? How did the slaveholding South stand out from the Northern Free States?
