Some of the families studied in this volume were virtual representations of the colonial social order, including the free, the enslaved, white and black. The economic status of family members ranged from slaves without property to planter elites. While miscegenation facilitated manumission for a few, particular for women of colour in Louisiana and Saint-Domingue, more important was the support of other black and coloured family members. This volume examines free black communities in Senegal, South Carolina, Louisiana, Florida, Cuba, Saint-Domingue, Haiti, the Dominican Republic and Suriname to compare the genesis of a free black class within Senegalese, British, French, Spanish and Dutch slave systems. Contents: Becoming free : manumission and the genesis of a free black community in South Carolina, 1740-90 / Robert Olwell; Colour, class, and identity on the eve of the Haitian revolution : Saint-Domingue's free coloured elite as colons ame?ricains / John D. Garrigus; Patronage, property, and persistence : the emergence of a free black elite in Spanish New Orleans / Kimberly S. Hanger; The limits of privilege : where free persons of colour stood in the hierarchy of wealth in antebellum New Orleans / Paul Lachance; Acquisition and loss on a Spanish frontier : the free black homesteaders of Florida, 1784-1821 / Jane G. Landers; Free blacks and coloureds in plantation Suriname : the struggle to rise / Rosemarijn Hoefte; Shades of freedom : Anna Kingsley in Senegal, Florida, and Haiti / Daniel L. Schafer.

"Scholars, including those represented in this volume, are now mining Florida's rich archival materials and unearthing its material culture through archaeological investigations. They are discovering that Florida's colonial economy was much more diversified and integrated into the wider Atlantic commerce than previously has been understood. Were it not for the repeated violence that wreaked havoc in the colony in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, Florida might have achieved the prosperity its boosters once predicted." - Introduction From the professional library of Dr. Philip D. Morgan, a professor of History at Johns Hopkins University. Morgan specializes in the African-American experience, the history of slavery, the early Caribbean, and the study of the early Atlantic world. Morgan is the author of more than 14 books on Colonial America and African American history. He has won both the Bancroft Prize and the Frederick Douglass Prize for his book Slave Counterpoint: Black Culture in the Eighteenth-Century Chesapeake and Lowcountry (1998).
