Book Synopsis
The era of the American Revolution was one of violent and unpredictable social, economic, and political change, and the dislocations of the period were most severely felt in the South. This title contends that the military struggle there involved a triangle - two sets of white belligerents and approximately 400,000 slaves.

Trade Review
"Frey's broad research, skillful synthesis, sensitivity, and insight fill her work with a subtle power ... [and] demands reading by anyone seriously interested in blacks, American religion, the South, or the Revolutionary era."--Library Journal "What were the feelings of the several hundred thousand blacks in the thirteen colonies at the time of the American Revolution? Some surprising answers emerge from this pioneering history."--The Washington Post Book World
