"'Free Blacks of Accomack County, Virginia' is a happy by-product of Kirk Mariner's meticulous scholarship. In researching his ground-breaking 'Slave and Free on Virginia's Eastern Shore from the Revolution to the Civil War,' Mariner combed antebellum court order books, wills and inventories, federal censuses, newspapers, manuscripts, and other sources, all the while taking the time to note every free black who appeared in the record. The result is a list of more than 10,000 names. Each entry in the list provides a citation to the source document and a brief summary of why the name appeared in the document." - back cover.

Before 1670 position of African immigrants coming into the Eastern Shore of Virginia was not unlike that of most whites; they were "in bondage." Although in the case of the Africans the bondage had not set time-limit, and was thus in fact slavery, they were "very often able to purchase their freedom (...) acquire land, marry, have families and live an existence not unlike the freed white indentured servant." After 1670, however, a move began "to discard indentured servitude and have slavery as the only method to supply the work force."

It is one of the least commonly known facts about the Civil War: there were many, many free negroes living in slaveholding states before the Emancipation Proclamation. This monograph on that surprising reality, originally published in 1913, draws on such firsthand documents as court records, contemporary literature and newspaper accounts, and other sources to create the first such portrait of this nearly forgotten chapter of African-American history. From the various origins of the "free negro" classes to their legal and social statuses-regarding everything from their right of travel to their relationship with their enslaved fellows-this "should supply some of the facts upon which the history of the negro race in the United States must be based," wrote author JOHN HENDERSON RUSSELL (b. 1884) in his preface.
