Black Rebellion - Paperback

Black Rebellion is a historical book written by Thomas Wentworth Higginson. The book is a detailed account of the American Civil War, with a specific focus on the role of African American soldiers and their contributions to the Union army. Higginson was himself a Union soldier and abolitionist, and his firsthand experiences and observations provide valuable insight into the struggles and triumphs of the black soldiers during the war. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the recruitment and training of black soldiers, their experiences on the battlefield, and the impact of their service on the larger struggle for freedom and equality in America. Higginson also explores the political and social context of the war, including the role of slavery and the abolitionist movement in shaping the conflict. Overall, Black Rebellion is a powerful and illuminating account of a pivotal moment in American history, and a testament to the courage and resilience of the black soldiers who fought for their freedom and the future of their country.In this plot four of the men had been already initiated--Henry, Hark or Hercules, Nelson, and Sam. Two others were novices, Will and Jack by name. The party had remained together from twelve to three o'clock, when a seventh man joined them, --a short, stout, powerfully built person, of dark mulatto complexion, and strongly marked African features, but with a face full of expression and resolution. This was Nat Turner.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
