Shows the deep, broad, and continuous influence of slavery on America's fear and loathing of taxes. This book reveals how the heated battles over taxation, the power to tax, and the distribution of tax burdens were rooted not in debates over personal liberty but rather in the rights of slaveholders to hold human beings as property.
