Abstract
Dramatic changes in the economic and social life of the North are having a very different impact on the South. Cotton production expands, the invention of the cotton gin opens up opportunities for staple cotton, and the importance of slavery to the Southern economy is entrenched. Excerpts from a plantation family's correspondence in the mid-19th century punctuate this historical analysis.
