About this title

Synopsis

A harrowing memoir of captivity, courage, and a hard-won road to freedom from slavery.

This gripping journey follows a man who escapes bondage and seeks liberty across the sea, enduring danger and cruelty along the way.

From the traumatic days of plantation cruelty to the perilous path toward a freer life abroad, this edition presents the author’s vivid testimony. It chronicles his escape, the dangers of pursuit, and the complex feelings tied to leaving loved ones behind, all while seeking faith, education, and a place in a world that finally offers him liberty. The book blends personal ordeal with a broader look at resistance, endurance, and the ache for freedom.

The narrative offers a clear, first-hand view of life under slavery, the brutal methods used to deter escape, and the steps a determined individual took to secure safety in a distant land. Readers will gain not only a survivor’s account but a window into the historical context of anti-slavery efforts and the human longing for dignity and freedom.

First-hand accounts of escape, pursuit, and the fight for freedom
Vivid scenes of punishment, resilience, and religious awakening
Journey from America to Britain and the early days of life in a new country
Historical context of slavery and the abolitionist movement through personal experience

Ideal for readers of memoirs of escape, historical slavery narratives, and those drawn to stories of perseverance, faith, and the pursuit of liberty.
