Nat Turner: Slave Revolt Leader Bisson, Terry
Like New.
Hardcover. Hardcover Grolier edition 1988. Superclean; no marks; appears unread. Glossy picture cover--no dustjacket. Introductory essay: Coretta Scott King. 110pp, Index, Chronology, Further Reading, B/W illustrations and photos. Language: English. Notable Black Americans of Achievement series. Young Adult level. Grades 7-up. 'A well-written, sympathetic biography of the leader of our nation's bloodiest slave revolt--60 whites were killed by the insurgents in 1831, and 200 blacks lost their lives in the ensuing terror. Bisson creates an excellent background to Turner's life, describing not only the daily life of a slave, but also how it felt to have no control over one's destiny. The violence of Turner's revolt is toned down a bit for the younger audience, without losing the chaotic emotions behind it. In addition to the loss of life, Bisson points out that the revolution shattered the notions that the slaves would not, or could not, fight for their freedom, and that blacks were happy as slaves and would submit forever to be beasts of burden.'-- Elizabeth M. Reardon, School Library Journal. Keywords: preacher, African-American, people of color.
