Sociology For The South: Or The Failure Of Free Society is a book written by George Fitzhugh in 1854. The book is an analysis of the social and economic conditions in the American South during the mid-19th century. Fitzhugh argues that the free society of the North is a failure and that the only viable alternative is a society based on slavery. He claims that slavery is a superior economic system and that it is the only way to ensure social stability and order. Fitzhugh also argues that the white race is superior to the black race and that slavery is a natural and necessary institution for the preservation of the social order. The book is controversial and has been criticized for its defense of slavery and racism. However, it remains an important historical document that provides insight into the attitudes and beliefs of the American South during the antebellum period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
