About Bondmen And Rebels: A Study Of Master-Slave
Product Description Originally published in 1985, and available for the first time in paperback, Bondmen & Rebels provides a pioneering study of slave resistance in the Americas. Using the large-scale Antigua slave conspiracy of 1736 as a window into that society, David Barry Gaspar explores the deeper interactive character of the relation between slave resistance and white control. Review "A fine-grained analysis . . . the most detailed account yet available of slavery in Antigua, from settlement until 1763." --Susan Lowes, "Journal of Social History" "An impressive study by a careful and elegant scholar and a substantial contribution to the growing scholarship on the slave societies of the Caribbean with the important implications for the rest of the Americas." --Arnold A. Sio," The Journal of American History" "One of the best studies of its genre--probing, balanced, and careful in its scholarship." --Colin A. Palmer, "William & Mary Quarterly" "The most comprehensive treatment to date on slave resistance in a British Caribbean territory." --Edward L. Cox, "American Historical Review" About the Author David Barry Gaspar is Professor of History at Duke University.
