Summary

"From Calabar to Carter's Grove highlights forces and experiences that shaped eighteenth-century black Virginians' lives in a tidewater slave community. Scholars of colonial North America and of American slavery will profit from it. By exemplifying a rarely discussed model of the relationship between academic history and attempts to speak to a broader public, the book should also interest those concerned about the place of rigorous scholarship in popular historical consciousness." - William and Mary Quarterly
