Query: A wealth of forgotten history

"Southern Quakers and Slavery" was first published in 1896. It is not a work of popular history, and presents no Big Ideas or sweeping generalizations. But for those of us interested in rarely-visited corners of American history, it presents a wealth of detailed information that more recent historians seem to have missed. Weeks' research focuses on a careful reading of the journals of "Traveling Friends" who visited the early Quaker communities of the South, and on the records of those communities. It is the only work of Quaker history I have yet found that helps the reader understand what was really going on in those communities from the late 17th to the 19th century. There are also some useful Appendices, with information, dates and other statistics for meetings in VA, the Carolinas, and Tennessee.
