During the American Revolution, thousands of slaves fled from
their masters to find freedom with the British. Having emancipated
themselves–and with rhetoric about the inalienable rights of free
men ringing in their ears–these men and women struggled
tenaciously to make liberty a reality in their lives.
This alternative narrative includes the stories of dozens of
individuals–including Harry, one of George Washington’s
slaves–who left America and forged difficult new lives in
far-flung corners of the British Empire. Written in the best
tradition of history from the bottom up, this pathbreaking work
will alter the way we think about the American Revolution.
