Hardback. Condition: New. When most Americans think of slavery, they do not picture the colonial or revolutionary eras. Yet, in fact, one of six inhabitants of the thirteen original colonies was enslaved. The Escapes of David George: An Odyssey of Slavery, Freedom, and the American Revolution reveals a remarkable, untold experience of the American revolutionary period-a Black man's quest for the freedom espoused by our Founders, but denied him and other enslaved people.In 1762, at the age of 19, David George escaped from a plantation in Virginia. Running southwest by night, fording rivers and crossing borders, he embarked on a decades-long journey in and out of captivity that spanned multiple colonies and thousands of miles. George lived among White, Black, Creek, and Natchez settlements, fled to the British Army for the promise of liberty, founded what might have been the first Black Baptist church, helped to hack a settlement for refugees out of the Nova Scotia wilderness, and died as a leader of an experimental anti-slavery community in Sierra Leone.Piecing together archival records and David George's own brief account of his life-the earliest written testimony by a fugitive enslaved person in North America--Gregory O'Malley presents a thrilling narrative and a unique perspective on our nation's origins, principles, and contradictions.

Paperback. Condition: New. Known for her work exploring global ecological issues, Northern Sámi artist Máret Ánne Sara responds to Tate Modern's history as a former oil and coal power station, inviting us to view energy not as a resource to be exploited, but as a sacred life-force, sustained through reciprocal relationships.Born in 1983 to a Sámi reindeer herding family in Guovdageaidnu in the Norwegian part of Sápmi, Sara's multidisciplinary practice highlights the impact of Nordic colonialism on Sámi ways of life, exploring the importance of preserving Sámi ancestral knowledge and values to protect the environment for future generations.Goavve-Geabbil honours this worldview, inviting us to embrace the power of Sámi philosophy and science. 'Goavvi' is a snow condition caused by extreme temperature fluctuations due to climate change, leading to widespread malnutrition and starvation of reindeer, while 'Geabbil' signifies the importance of adaptability and mutual support in the face of this ongoing crisis.Often using materials and methodologies derived from reindeer herding, Sara's powerful sculptures and installations which uphold the reciprocal relationship between animals, lands, waters, and humans.

Published by UNC for the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture. From the flap: "Drawing on a database of over seven thousand intercolonial slave trading voyages compiled from port records, newspapers, and merchant accounts, O'Malley identifies and quantifies the major routes of this intercolonial slave trade. He argues that such voyages were a crucial component in the development of slavery in the Caribbean and North America and that trade in the unfree led to experimentation with free trade between empires."
