""White Servitude In Maryland 1634-1820"" is a historical book written by Eugene Irving McCormac.

The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the legal and social structures that facilitated the exploitation of white laborers in Maryland, including the factors that led to the rise of the system, the conditions under which white servants lived and worked, and the ways in which the system affected the broader social and economic landscape of the state. McCormac also examines the experiences of individual white servants, including their motivations for entering into servitude, the hardships they faced, and the ways in which they navigated the complex social and legal systems that governed their lives.
