"John McKivigan has done a splendid job of editing this paperback volume. . . . This little-known book, largely overshadowed heretofore by Frederick Law Olmsted's famous The Cotton Kingdom, will now, in this fine reprint, take its rightful place among the many volumes that enable us to gain some sense of the reality of American slavery and of the extremes to which Americans were driven to be rid of it." -Georgia Historical Quarterly, "John McKivigan has done a splendid job of editing this paperback volume. . . .

Synopsis
While a reporter at Horace Greeley's New York Tribune, James Redpath developed a strong curiosity about slavery and decided that he would travel south ""to see slavery with my own eyes."" Redpath interviewed slaves, recorded their opinions, and collected these letters into book form, publishing them in 1859 as The Roving Editor. While some historians over the years have utilized Redpath's book, many have treated it as merely another travel account of the antebellum South, dismissing the interviews as the fabrication of a radical abolitionist. John R. McKivigan has uncovered important historical records that certify for the first time the authenticity of Redpath's interviews; he presents here the original newspaper articles that supply the places and times of many of the slave encounters, which Redpath had edited out of the book. Furthermore, using Redpath's unpublished correspondence, McKivigan verifies his residence in southern communities at the times these interviews were reported to have taken place, making The Roving Editor one of the most valuable and compelling sources of the slaves' own testimony regarding their treatment in the late antebellum period., While a reporter at Horace Greeley's New York Tribune , James Redpath developed a strong curiosity about slavery and decided that he would travel south "to see slavery with my own eyes."

    Everything positive to say about this seller, every category. Aim to buy more from them in the future. Everything was handled quickly, communication as well, friendly and helpful. My album’s new and in excellent shape, and was packaged well so it stayed that way. Everything is as described and pictured. Decent value for the money, considering it’s an older vinyl and rarity that’s never been opened, pressed in 1977. Year before I was born, ha. I’m thrilled and love it, will enjoy it. Thank you!
