So central was labour in the lives of African-American slaves that it has often been taken for granted, with little attention given to the type of work that slaves did. Cultivation and Culture explores when, where, and how slaves laboured in growing the New World's great staples and how this work shaped the institution of slavery and the lives of African-American slaves.
