Description

This comprehensive collection presents authentic runaway slave notices from Virginia spanning 1801 to 1820, offering primary source documentation essential for understanding African American resistance to slavery in early nineteenth-century America. Reproduced in modern type exactly as originally published, these advertisements reveal the lived experiences and determination of enslaved people seeking freedom. The volume includes a historical preface contextualising the collection's significance for scholars of African American history, slavery studies, and American cultural resistance. Chronologically organised with comprehensive indexing by both slave and master names, this resource provides researchers, historians, and students with direct access to historical records that illuminate the personal stories behind the institution of slavery and the courage of those who fled bondage.
