1852Best.-Nr. 194391852. Acts of the General Assembly of Virginia for 1852 documents slave-state governance in antebellum Virginia providing evidence of the legal system through which racial control fiscal administration corporate authorization and transportation development operated before the Civil War. The statute titled "An Act to suppress Gambling by Negroes and white persons together" identifies interracial association as a matter of state regulation showing how Virginia law extended racial discipline beyond labor and movement into informal social contact. The volume supports research into African American legal history slavery-era governance Southern economic development and the relationship between racial restriction and state-directed modernization. Richmond: William F. Ritchie Public Printer 1852. First edition. 8vo. Half legal calf over marbled boards with spine label; 3 4-403 pages including index. The volume compiles the year's legislative acts including statutes on taxation fiscal policy corporate charters navigation companies steamship enterprises transportation infrastructure and social regulation. The gambling statute involving Black and white participants provides especially direct evidence of racial boundary-making in everyday law while the numerous provisions for navigation steamship and internal improvement companies demonstrate the process by which Virginia promoted commercial expansion and regional economic integration through legislative authorization. Crack at front board gutter with board still holding; moderate wear to leather and marbled boards; interior generally clean with expected toning. Overall very good. A substantial antebellum Virginia legal volume linking the mechanics of state government to the racial and economic priorities of a slaveholding society. unknown
