Labor, Free and Slave: Workingmen and the Anti-Slavery Movement

By Bernard Mandel

"This edition will bring historians' attention back to a great but no longer known work from the past. Brian Kelly's excellent introduction provides a biography of Mandel, places his book in the context of writings on U.S. history, and presents the critique of whiteness studies implicit in Mandel's thought in a clear and provocative fashion."
--David Montgomery, author of Fall of the House of Labor

"The University of Illinois Press has served readers well by republishing Labor, Free and Slave. It has brought this important book back into the dialog about mid-19th century American history."
