Bondmen and Rebels cover

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.

OAn 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.O --Arnold A. Sio, The Journal of American History
