  • The Antebellum War over Slavery

    Open AccessStanley HarroldCHAPTERCambridge History of the American…2019

    For decades historians of the Civil War Era have agreed that the causes of the war lay in issues related to slavery rather than sectional disagreements over economics and state rights. Northern criticism of the slave labor system, Southern proslavery defensiveness, Southern efforts to expand slavery into US territories, Northern fear of proslavery domination of the federal government, and a Northern free-labor ideology all had roles. While recogn…

    Stanley HarroldARTICLEThe American Historical Review2014

    Studies of Washington, D.C., as it was during the mid-nineteenth century, often center on Congress and, to a lesser extent, the two other branches of the United States government. Nearly 20 years ago William Lee Miller, in Arguing about Slavery: John Quincy Adams and the Great Battle in the United States Congress (1995), recreated the drama of congressmen debating the Gag Rule, which during the late 1830s and early 1840s barred antislavery petiti…

  • Dramatic Turning Point or Points? Teaching Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation

    Stanley HarroldARTICLEOAH Magazine of History2013

    The CBS televi­sion series You Are There, hosted by Walter Cronkite, air­ed between 1953 and 1957. It dramatized maj­or events in American and world history, covering politics, war, science, sports, and entertainment. The only requirement: events had to be portrayed as transpiring on a single day. At the end of each episode, Cronkite asked, “What sort of day was it?” He always answered, “A day like all days, filled with events that alter and illu…

  • Evil Necessity

    Stanley Harrold, Harold D TallantARTICLEThe Journal of Southern History2004

    In Kentucky, the slavery debate raged for thirty years before the Civil War began. While whites in the lower South argued that slavery was good for master and slave, many white Kentuckians maintained that because of racial prejudice, public safety, and property rights, slavery was necessary but undeniably evil. Harold D. Tallant shows how this view bespoke a real ambivalence about the desirability of continuing slavery in Kentucky and permitted a…

  • Democracy and Slavery in Frontier Illinois

    Stanley Harrold, James SimeoneARTICLEJournal of American History2002

    During the late eighteenth century, southern immigrants introduced black bondage—un-der the pseudonym of indentured servitude— into Illinois Territory. They did this despite the Northwest Ordinance's exclusion of slavery from it and other territories in the region. In 1824, after Illinois had become a state, voters rejected, by a margin of 6,822 to 4,950, a call for a constitutional convention that in all likelihood would have allowed slavery to …

  • On the Borders of Slavery and Race

    Stanley HarroldARTICLEJournal of the Early Republic2000Cited by: 2

    Boundaries are physical, political, legal, cultural, and psychological limits on individuals and nations. They indicate points beyond which prudent persons must not venture because the risks are too great. Yet by crossing into a different country, a different cultural framework, individuals change themselves and-if they risk enough-their times as well. The more formidable the barrier, the more profound the potential change. Recent studies of the …
