This book examines the successful slave revolt aboard the US slave ship Creole during the early 1840s and its consequences. Drawing upon previously unexamined federal sources, British colonial documents, states' records, and American and British newspapers, it examines the neglected maritime dimensions of the US slave trade and slave revolt.
