Foreshadowing Vesey
The Vesey conspiracy was the largest in North America, yet historians have failed to establish the wider contexts for how white authorities responded to the plot. This article points to a conspiracy in Camden, South Carolina, in 1816 to argue that many of the responses to Vesey derived from participants' knowledge of Camden. In particular, those representing Charleston in the state legislature gained first-hand knowledge of the plot and several l…
City of Refuge
This book is a welcome addition to the growing historiography on American maroons, perhaps best exemplified by Sylviane A. Diouf's American Exiles (2014). Marcus P. Nevius concentrates on the Great Dismal Swamp, a tract of largely impenetrable wilderness on the border of Virginia and North Carolina. The region was a haven for fugitive slaves in the seventeenth century because it was both conveniently close to the plantations of the Virginia tidew…
Military Medicine and the Making of Race
This book demonstrates how Britain's black soldiers helped shape attitudes towards race throughout the nineteenth century. The West India Regiments were part of the British military establishment for 132 years, generating vast records with details about every one of their 100,000+ recruits which made them the best-documented group of black men in the Atlantic World. Tim Lockley shows how, in the late eighteenth century, surgeons established in me…
Matthew J. Clavin. The Battle of Negro Fort
Matthew J. Clavin’s The Battle of Negro Fort: The Rise and Fall of a Fugitive Slave Community is the second book-length study in six years to examine the events at Prospect Bluff on the Apalachicola River in 1816 after Nathaniel Millett’s The Maroons of Prospect Bluff and Their Quest for Freedom in the Atlantic World (2013). This book is somewhat shorter than Millett’s book and covers a lot of the same ground, but it offers a history of this intr…

Our American Way of Living’
Lucy Richardson Milligan organised a series of radio talks entitled ‘Our American Way of Living’ to be broadcast during the intermissions of the Metropolitan Opera broadcasts in 1940-41. She deliberately set out to counter fascist propaganda and embedded her talks within a program that had a very large audience. By doing so she co-opted one of the techniques of Nazi propagandists and did so in the year before the US entered WWII

The forming and fracturing of families on a South Carolina rice plantation, 1812–1865
This case study traces family formation among enslaved people on a South Carolina rice plantation owned by Charles Cotesworth Pinckney in the first half of the nineteenth century. It uses a rare set of documents to show how enslaved people were brought together mainly via inheritance (rather than purchase) to form a new community, and how they responded to frequent mobility within the holdings of a single planter. It also highlights the peculiar …

Runaway Slave Colonies in the Atlantic World
Communities of runaway slaves, more commonly known as “Maroon communities,” were created throughout the Americas. Enslaved people ran away from their owners all the time, often just for a few days, but some decided never to return to slavery and instead found permanent (or semi-permanent) refuge from the harsh life on the plantations in swamps, jungles, forests, and mountains. Sometimes in very small groups of less than ten people, but more usual…

The Contagious City
This short but interesting book by Simon Finger examines the evolution of ideas and practice relating to public health from the founding of Philadelphia in the 1680s through to the end of the eighteenth century. Throughout this period public health was a matter for political argument and action. Finger shows that concern for public health was present in the earliest years of the colonisation of Pennsylvania, with promoters, for example, stressing…
Black Mortality in Antebellum Savannah
Black mortality in an urban environment in the antebellum South is relatively under-researched. This article is based on burial records from Savannah between 1853 and 1861 and argues that black mortality in Savannah was noticeably better than on nearby plantations and was broadly comparable to white mortality. This is in contrast to previous studies on slave mortality which have tended to stress that black mortality was worse than white. I conclu…

David Margrett
David Margrett was a black missionary sent by the Countess of Huntingdon to preach to slaves in South Carolina and Georgia in 1774. Margrett did not confine his preaching in America to spiritual matters, instead speaking out against the system of slavery itself, and offering himself as a “second Moses.” Margrett's message was not well received by authorities in South Carolina, indeed he was fortunate to escape with his life. This article argues t…

Rural Poor Relief in Colonial South Carolina
This article explores the rural poor relief system of colonial South Carolina. It finds that poor relief was substantially more generous and more readily available in rural areas of South Carolina than elsewhere in British North America, or indeed in the entire Anglophone world. It suggests that this was because elite vestrymen had deep-seated concerns about the position of the white poor in a society that was dominated by African slavery. Genero…
