Yet imagery of fugitives ushered clandestinely from safe house to safe house fails to capture the full breadth of these harrowing journeys: many escapes took place not by land but by sea. Deeply researched and grippingly told, Freedom Ship offers a groundbreaking new look into the secret world of stowaways and the vessels that carried them to freedom across the North and into Canada. Sprawling through the intricate riverways of the Carolinas to the banks of the Chesapeake Bay to Boston's harbors, these tales illuminate the little-known stories of freedom seekers who turned their sights to the sea-among them the legendary abolitionist Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman, one of the Underground Railroad's most famous architects. Marcus Rediker, one of the leading scholars of maritime history, puts his command of archival research on full display in this luminous portrait of the Atlantic waterfront as a place of conspiracy, mutiny, and liberation.

He wrote a fiery, controversial book against bondage that Benjamin Franklin published in 1738.

Rebel fugitive John Gwin was previously introduced in Under the Banner of King Death and this graphic novel continues his adventures. Revolution by Fire is a hypothetical look at the inner workings of the so called 'New York Conspiracy' or 'Slave Rebellion' of 1741, following the figures who were considered the real-life masterminds of the plot. Featuring an eclectic crew of African-American, Irish, and mixed race Hispanic sailors, soldiers, and renegades, Gwin and his band are determined to capture New York City in their own names and fight the higher class 'wigs and ruffles' wearing white people.  Unfortunately for the conspirators, suspicions about an uprising were already in the minds of the Governor and his fellow elites, and the events that followed change the course of everyone's lives forever.  Based on the chapter titled 'Outcasts of the Nations of the Earth' in Rediker's and Peter Linebaugh's The Many-Headed Hydra : Sailors, Slaves, Commoners, and the Hidden History of the Revolutionary Atlantic, the book provides a fly-on-the-wall view of a historical event reimagined, highlighting cooperation among races and classes that transcends the social order of its time -- and inspire us today."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C2611904</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C2611904</guid><category><![CDATA[PAPERBACK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lester, David]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2611904126</comments><format>PAPERBACK</format><subtitle>New York&apos;s Afro-Irish Uprising of 1741</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780807012550/MC.GIF&amp;client=chicagoplb&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Many-headed Hydra]]></title><link>https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C798014</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C798014</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Linebaugh, Peter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/798014126</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Sailors, Slaves, Commoners, and the Hidden History of the Revolutionary Atlantic</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780807050064/MC.GIF&amp;client=chicagoplb&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Common Wind]]></title><description><![CDATA["Out of the grey expanse of official records in Spanish, English and French, The Common Wind provides a gripping and colourful account of inter-continental communication networks that tied together the free and enslaved masses of the new world.

Scott follows the spread of "rumors of emancipation" and the people behind them, bringing to life the protagonists in the slave revolution. By tracking the colliding worlds of buccaneers, military deserters, and maroon communards from Venezuela to Virginia, Scott records the transmission of contagious mutinies and insurrections in unparalleled detail, providing readers with an intellectual history of the enslaved.
