Bøger af Hank Trent

Historians have long discussed the interracial families of prominent slave dealers in Richmond, Virginia, and elsewhere, yet, until now, the story of slave trader Bacon Tait remained untold. Hank Trent tells Tait's complete story for the first time, reconstructing the hidden aspects of his strange and often paradoxical life.

The American Anti-Slavery Society originally published Narrative of James Williams, an American Slave in 1838 to much fanfare, describing it as a rare slave autobiography. In this annotated edition, Hank Trent provides newly discovered biographical information about the author - an African American man enslaved in Alabama and Virginia.
