De Bow's Review, Volume 11, offers a fascinating snapshot of the economic, social, and political landscape of the antebellum South. Originally published in 1851, this volume, part of the Making of America Project, provides valuable insights into the perspectives and debates shaping the region in the years leading up to the Civil War.
J.D.B. De Bow's influential journal served as a prominent platform for Southern intellectuals, planters, and politicians to discuss topics ranging from agriculture and commerce to slavery and states' rights. This volume includes articles, statistics, and reports that illuminate the economic activities, social structures, and political ideologies of the Old South. Readers gain a deeper understanding of the complex factors that contributed to the growing divide between North and South.
