Description: |
A new edition of the extraordinary autobiography of a black woman who escaped slavery in the West Indies |
Synopsis: |
Mary Prince was the first black British woman to escape from slavery and publish a record of her experiences. In this unique document, Mary Prince vividly recalls her life as a slave in Bermuda, Turks Island, Antigua, and England, her rebellion against physical and psychological degradation, and her eventual escape in London in 1828. In this revised and expanded edition of The History of Mary Prince, Moira Ferguson has added new material based on extensive research in Bermuda and London. The book contains a new introduction and nine new appendixes, including details of Mary Prince's experiences as a freewoman in England, and excerpts from prominent British periodicals of the day, reflecting the reactions against the original publication of The History of Mary Prince. |
