Abstract

Reviewer Robert Colby writes that Dale Kretz's use of the Freedmen's Branch archives in Administering Freedom: The State of Emancipation after the Freedmen's Bureau reveals "Black Americans' fraught relationship with the state" and how "the government . . . funneled that relationship into a severely constrained channel."
