Reize naar Surinamen en door de binnenste gedeelten van Guiana — Deel 3 by Stedman
"Reize naar Surinamen en door de binnenste gedeelten van Guiana — Deel 3" by John Gabriël Stedman is a travel narrative published in 1799. This account chronicles a five-year military expedition against escaped slaves in Suriname, beginning in 1773. Stedman documents the brutal realities of colonial slavery, tropical warfare, and plantation life while expressing outrage at the cruelties inflicted upon enslaved people. His observations blend natural history, military campaigns against freedom fighters,
and intimate glimpses into colonial society, creating a powerful record that influenced abolitionist sentiment. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
