Black Rebellion is a historical book written by Thomas Wentworth Higginson that chronicles the events of the Nat Turner slave rebellion of 1831. The book provides a detailed account of the rebellion, which was led by Nat Turner, a slave preacher who believed he was chosen by God to lead a rebellion against slavery. The rebellion resulted in the deaths of over 50 white people and led to a violent backlash against slaves in the South. Higginson's book delves into the social and political context of the rebellion, examining the conditions that led to the uprising and the impact it had on the abolitionist movement. He also explores the legacy of Nat Turner and the rebellion, including its influence on the Civil War and the ongoing struggle for racial justice in America. Throughout the book, Higginson draws on historical documents and firsthand accounts to provide a comprehensive and engaging narrative of this pivotal moment in American history. Black Rebellion is a powerful and thought-provoking read that sheds light on the complex and often violent history of slavery in the United States.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.
