They Were Her Property: White Women as Slave Owners in the American South by Stephanie E. Jones-Rogers is a work of history that revises long-standing assumptions about slavery in the United States. Centered on the antebellum South, the book argues that white women were not merely bystanders within a male-dominated slave system but active owners, managers, and beneficiaries of enslaved labor. Drawing on testimonies of formerly enslaved people alongside legal, financial, and narrative sources, Jones-Rogers shows how women acquired people as property, controlled sales and punishments, and used slaveholding to build wealth and social authority. The book belongs to the intersecting fields of American slavery, women’s history, and African American history, and its purpose is to recover a dimension of slave society that has often been minimized. Rather than treating gender as evidence of innocence, it examines how white womanhood itself was shaped by participation in slavery.
