Abstract
Stanley Elkins and James McPherson are two great authors with many years of teaching and writing history. They both seem to share some of the same historical interpretations on slavery.
But McPherson’s discussion seems to be more accurate than Elkins because He gives a more detail discussion on the black experience during the reconstruction and on antebellum American slavery prior to the Civil War. McPherson’s writing is more up to date (2001) than Elkins. Elkins seem to rely solely on critical commentary from other authors when discussing slavery.
His basis is on the growing interest in black culture, which had some significant contribution to work published on slavery in the 1970s. Elkin’s was not as up to date as McPherson with his latest edition. Elkins last edition on slavery was published in 1976.
