Publisher's Synopsis
The Negro Law of South Carolina is a historical book written by John Belton O'neall in 1848. It provides a detailed account of the legal status of African Americans in South Carolina during the mid-19th century. The book outlines the various laws and regulations that governed the lives of African Americans, including restrictions on their movement, their ability to own property, and their right to education. The book also highlights the ways in which these laws were used to perpetuate slavery and maintain the social hierarchy of the time. O'neall's work provides a valuable insight into the legal and social conditions of African Americans in the antebellum South and serves as a reminder of the struggles and injustices faced by this community during this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
