Book Details
First Sentence
"The Maroons! it was a word of peril once; and terror spread along the skirts of the blue mountains of Jamaica when some fresh foray of those unconquered guerrillas swept down from the outlying plantations, startled the Assembly from its order, Gen. Williamson from his billiards, and Lord Balcarres from his diplomatic ease,-endangering, according to the official statement, "public credit," "civil right," and "the prosperity, if not the very existence, of the country," until they were "persuaded to make peace" at last."
