The purpose of this Guide is to assist scholars in locating source materials in the University of Chicago Library for the history of slavery in the Atlantic world, and its aftermath. The literature of slavery is extensive and widely scattered. This Guide attempts to identify the most useful bibliographies, catalogs, guides, and indexing and abstracting tools with the assistance of which the inquirer may start to make his or her way into this large literature.

The Guide also identifies the most important collections of original source materials for slavery in our collections. These fall into four categories: (1) Large microform sets of original archival materials, such as the Records of the Ante-bellum Southern Plantations from the Revolution through the Civil War, or the Records of the Secretary of the Interior relating to the Suppression of the African Slave Trade and Negro Colonization;(2) collections of published sources, such as slave narratives, travelers' accounts, and correspondence of slaves and slaveowners; (3) large collections of early printed books, serials, and newspapers, such as the Early American Imprints, 1801-1819, Early American Newspapers, 1701-1820, the Goldsmiths'-Kress Library of Economic Literature, and so forth; and (4) collections of government publications, such as the British Parliamentary Papers, the Early State Legislative Journals, and the U. S. Executive Branch Documents, 1789-1909. Because of the peculiar value of government publications for many aspects of the historiography of slavery and its aftermath, the Guide includes sections identifying publications in the Congressional Serial Set and the British Parliamentary Papers that provide the basic documentation on U. S. and British involvement with and regulation of slavery.

This Guide is only a preliminary and imperfect tool. It does not seek to identify the thousands of scholarly monographs and articles in our collections that embody the historiography of Atlantic slavery--that the function of the bibliographies, indexes, and catalogs listed herein. Nor can it pretend to be comprehensive in any department. There are unquestionably many sources omitted. Even the most famous, most influential, and most studied slave narratives, those of Frederick Douglass, are not listed herein. And the extensive papers personal and public papers of slaveholders such as Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, and Jackson, and those of antislavery leaders such as Van Buren and J. Q. Adams are held by the Library but not listed. A fuller listing of sources appears in A Guide to Microforom Sources for History and Political Science in the University of Chicago Library (1997).

The period of the First World War saw a rapid increase in black migration from the rural south to urban centers in the industrialized north. The same period saw a great expansion of government control over the economy; several basic industries vital to the war effort came under federal control. Collection comprises records created by these wartime agencies that focus upon the operations and labor conditions of several such industries and on black workers. Collection also includes records from agencies that studied black workers in the '20's, including the Department of Labor, Bureau of Agricultural Economics, and the U.S. Census Bureau.

An important economic feature of the early 20th century south was peonage, or debt peonage. Plantation owners held laborers in debt, and forced them to remain on the premises to work off their debt, often by violence or intimidation. The system functioned as a kind of substitute for the antebellum slave system. Collection comprises the peonage files of the Justice Department from 1901 to 1945, including complaints to the department from local US attorneys, private individuals, and organizations such as the NAACP; internal legal memoranda, depositions by witnesses, briefs, trial transcripts; and investigations conducted by the FBI. Peonage was also a feature of industries as well, and the collection provides information on many features of the economic history of the South, especially wages, labor conditions, and labor recruitment.
