[Kennedy, Edward Moore "Ted". (1932–2009)] Oshinsky, David M. (b. 1944). "'Worse Than Slavery'" - Inscribed to Senator Ted Kennedy. New York: The Free Press. 1996. First. 8vo, 324pp., hardcover, inscribed on title page "For Senator Ted + Vicki Kennedy,/ with all best wishes/ David M. Oshinsky/ May 8, 1997." Light marking to original dust jacket, else fine.
An interesting volume from the director of the Division of Medical Humanities at NYU School of Medicine. "Worse than Slavery" was awarded the Robert F. Kennedy Book Award in 1997, which commended the author for "drawing on prison records, state archives, legislative hearings, court proceedings, folklore, and the blues, [in order to reconstruct] the harrowing history of Parchman Farm, the state penitentiary in Mississippi. 'Worse Than Slavery' provides a stark and unflinching look at a tragic episode in the chronicle of race and justice in America. This impressive work of historical scholarship reminds us once again that the abolition of slavery did not end the institutionalized oppression of African-Americans." (rfkhumanrights.org)
From the collection of the youngest brother of John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy, United States Senator from Massachusetts who served almost 47 years, and was the second most senior member of the Senate when he died and is the fourth-longest-serving senator in United States history.
