Focusing on the often-overlooked history of slavery in seventeenth-century New England, this book highlights the individual experiences of enslaved Africans and indigenous peoples. It examines the economic and cultural impact of slavery on the region, despite enslaved individuals making up only 4 percent of the population by the American Revolution. The narrative also delves into New England's ties to Caribbean plantations and the significance of emancipation movements during this transformative period. Engagingly written and thoroughly researched, it offers vital insights into this complex history.
