3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. See slavery from the view of slave owners.By Robin HansonA great resource to hear about slavery from the point of view of slave owners. Yes you may think they are evil; but still if you want to understand how such an institution could have persisted for so long among such modern people; it helps to see how they thought about it.
