Tells the story of the only slavery case adjudicated in Oregon's pre-Civil War courts - Holmes v. Ford. Through the lens of this landmark case, R. Gregory Nokes explores the historical context of racism in Oregon and the West, reminding readers that there actually were slaves in Oregon, though relatively few in number.
