Focusing on the 1831 slave rebellion led by Nat Turner, this definitive history dismantles the myth of the contented slave and exposes the brutal realities of slavery and its aftermath. The violent uprising and the harsh reprisals that ensued significantly contributed to the rising tensions that eventually led to the Civil War. This reissued edition includes Turner's own compelling narrative, "The Confessions of Nat Turner," providing a powerful firsthand perspective on this pivotal moment in American history.
