Reize naar Surinamen en door de binnenste gedeelten van Guiana — Deel 4 by Stedman

"Reize naar Surinamen en door de binnenste gedeelten van Guiana — Deel 4" by John Gabriël Stedman is a travel account published in 1799. This work chronicles a five-year military expedition against revolted slaves in Suriname, beginning in 1773. Stedman documents the brutal realities of colonial slavery, indigenous freedom fighters, and deadly tropical warfare where European soldiers face higher mortality from climate than combat. His vivid descriptions and accompanying engravings by William Blake profoundly influenced European perceptions of slavery's cruelties. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
