"Cannibals All! or, Slaves Without Masters" presents a controversial and compelling argument about labor and social order in the antebellum United States. George Fitzhugh, a prominent social theorist, challenges conventional views on slavery, offering a provocative defense of the institution.

He posits that all societies, including those that claim to be free, exploit workers. His sharp social commentary made him a prominent figure in debates over slavery. This edition makes Fitzhugh's influential, albeit deeply problematic, text accessible to those interested in the history of slavery and nineteenth-century social and political thought.
