Summary
The geographical focus of the dictionary is the United States. The time frame for most essays is the period from the first English settlement in North America to Reconstruction after the Civil War. Selected biographies of prominent individuals involved in slavery, and of less-known but representative figures in Afro-American history add a variety of individual involvements with and responses to slavery in North America.
