In this major reexamination of the southern industrial economy and its failure to progress during the antebellum period, Fred Bateman and Thomas Weiss show that slavery and its consequences were not alone in inhibiting industrialization.

Underpinning this study is a massive data collection from census reports, which permits an economic analysis that was previously not feasible.
