The Negro Law of South Carolina (1848) is a historical book written by John Belton O’neall, which provides a comprehensive analysis of the legal status of enslaved African Americans in South Carolina during the mid-19th century. The book consists of a collection of laws, regulations, and court decisions that governed the lives of enslaved people in the state, including their rights and limitations, punishments for disobedience, and restrictions on their mobility and freedom. O’neall, who was a prominent judge in South Carolina, offers an in-depth examination of the legal framework that upheld the institution of slavery in the state. He explores the ways in which the law was used to control and regulate the lives of enslaved people, and how it perpetuated the racial hierarchy that existed in the antebellum South. The book also sheds light on the attitudes and beliefs of white Southerners towards slavery and race, as evidenced by the legal codes and court rulings of the time. O’neall’s analysis provides a valuable insight into the social and political context of slavery in South Carolina, and the ways in which it shaped the lives of both enslaved people and their white masters. Overall, The Negro Law of South Carolina (1848) is an important historical document that offers a detailed and nuanced perspective on the legal and social structures that underpinned slavery in the American South. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of history, law, and African American studies, as well as anyone interested in understanding the complex legacy of slavery in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
