viii, 181 pages : map ; 23 cm.
Bibliography:
Includes bibliographical references (pages 131-174) and index.
Summary:
"Many Canadians believe their nation fell on the right side of
history
in harbouring escaped
slaves
from the United States. In fact, in the wake of the American Revolution, many Loyalist families brought
slaves
with them when they settled in the
Maritime
colonies of British North America. Once there,
slaves
used their traditions of survival, resistance, and kinship networks to negotiate their new reality. Harvey Amani Whitfield's book, the first on slavery in the Maritimes, is a corrective to the enduring and triumphant narrative of Canada as a land of freedom at the end of the Underground Railroad. Harvey Amani Whitfield is an associate professor of
history
at the University of Vermont"--Back cover.
