    Abstract: This is the first full-length study of how colour intersected with polity, society and economy in the nineteenth century South. Although legal historians have explored how early Americans legally defined and contested race, that literature has overlooked or downplayed the middle ground occupied by a sizeable mixed-race population of antebellum free people. These were the 'talented tenth' long before W.E.B. Dubois coined the term.

    Abstract: The Color Factor shows that the emergent twenty-first-century recognition of race mixing and the relative advantages of light-skinned, mixed-race people is nothing new. In early America, light-skinned, mixed-race people were more likely to be freed from slavery, to be employed in more remunerative jobs, to accumulate more wealth, and to be taller and healthier.
