"Interesting and highly valuable first-person narrative of a woman slave who details her experiences in Bermuda and Antigua and also in Britain where she was employed by abolitionist Thomas Pringle. Sheds light on women's roles and experiences, and on slave system in islands. Prince was first known woman who rebelled from slavery and wrote her own account. First published in 1831, work was eagerly embraced by antislavery groups"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
