Sarson, Steven.

The tobacco-plantation South in the early American Atlantic world[electronic resource] /Steven Sarson. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2013. - 1 online resource (xiv, 258 p.) - The Americas in the early modern Atlantic world. - Americas in the early modern Atlantic world..

Includes bibliographical references (p. [241]-246) and index.

Introduction: The "Chosen People" : Agrarian Myths and Messier Realities -- Prologue: "The Interest of the County" : Prince George's County Levy Court and Local Politics, Economy, and Society -- "One must differentiate oneself a little" : Planter Gentility, Economy, Dynasty, and Politics -- "I Don't Stand to the Will" : Yeomen Farmers and Smallholders -- "Being allowed the Liberty" : Tenant Farmers and Artisans -- "The torment with the servants" : Wage Workers, Servants, and Slaves -- Epilogue: "Objects of Distress" : The Poor and the Destitute -- Appendix: A Statistical Analysis of Wealth Distribution and Mobility.

"Republican" writing and its historians portray the early republic in broadly egalitarian, communalistic, pre-market terms. Yet this book shows that census, tax, probate, land, court, and planters' records reveal vigorous markets and extensive inequality and individualism in Prince George's County, Maryland, and the wider tobacco south. Landownership, for example, was limited to 25 percent of free households by 1820, and the book explores complex relations between planters, yeomen, artisans, tenants, wage-workers, indentured servants, slaves, free blacks, and men and women on a uniquely detailed local level. Yet it also draws on colonial historiography to take (for early national studies) a groundbreaking cis-Atlantic approach, examining the profound impacts on local life of the Revolutionary War, non-intercourse and embargoes, the War of 1812, and the structure of the international tobacco trade.
