Описание: A truly invaluable collocation of documents. Highly Recommended.--Choice Brilliantly conceptualized, exhaustively researched, and eloquently written, it is a gold mine for anyone interested in Americas ongoing dilemma with slavery and race.--John Stauffer, author of Giants: The Parallel Lives of Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln This stunning and magisterial documentary history accumulates and analyzes much evidence never before considered adequately, if at all. The work of fifteen years by assiduous senior historians of slave rebellions, it not only considers the prehistory of the affair but also the long aftermath.--David Moltke-Hansen, editor of William Gilmore Simmss Unfinished Civil War: Consequences for a Southern Man of Letters Will surely become the definitive source on the Vesey conspiracy. Such an impressive assemblage and explication of records show not only how Veseys actions contributed to Americas Civil War but also why he continues to influence us, particularly in the South.--Bernard E. Powers Jr., author of Black Charlestonians: A Social History, 1822-1885 Places the Denmark Vesey conspiracy in a broad context. This volume should put to rest the argument by some historians that the conspiracy was little more than loose talk among those held in bondage.--Loren Schweninger, author of Families in Crisis in the Old South: Divorce, Slavery, and the Law

In 1822, thirty-four slaves and their leader, a free black man named Denmark Vesey, were tried and executed for attempting to raise an insurrection in Charleston, South Carolina. In The Denmark Vesey Affair, Douglas Egerton and Robert Paquette annotate and interpret a vast collection of contemporary documents that illuminate and contextualize this complicated saga, ultimately arguing that the Vesey plot was one of the most sophisticated acts of collective slave resistance in the history of the United States. This is the definitive account of a landmark event that spurred the South to secession.
