Book cover

First Page:

Transcriber's Note: I. Inconsistent punctuation and capitalisation has been silently corrected throughout the book. II. Clear spelling mistakes have been corrected however, inconsistent language usage (such as 'day' and 'dey') has been maintained. Inconsistent spelling of place names and personal names has also been retained. A list of corrections is included at the end of the book. III. Handwritten corrections have been incorporated within the text. Exceptions are notes which were just question marks or were followed by question marks: these have been explicitly included as 'Handwritten Notes'. IV. The numbers at the start of each interview were stamped into the original work and refer to the number of the published interview in the context of the entire Slave Narratives project.
