What The Reviewers Say
Rave
The Times (UK)
Sweeping ... Studded with novelistic vignettes of insurrection, it doubles as a brisk history of Atlantic slavery ... Hazareesingh’s book succeeds on the strength of its remarkable cache of evidence.

Quietly devastating ... A powerful corrective ... Hazareesingh’s painstakingly researched, soberly written narrative takes a broadly thematic approach.
