520 "Escaping Servitude: A Documentary History of Runaway
Servants in Eighteenth-Century Virginia is an edited
collection of runaway servant advertisements that appeared
in newspapers in eighteenth-century Virginia. In addition
to documenting the fugitive in the Chesapeake, it adds to
our understanding of indentured servitude and provides
valuable insights into an important chapter in American
history. Escaping Servitude's contribution to scholarship
is threefold. First, it calls new attention to the scant
scholarly body of work concerning indentured servitude;
specifically, the work pertaining to fugitive servants.
Highlighting well over one thousand accounts in which
bondsmen and women ran away from their masters in Virginia
during the colonial era, Escaping Servitude complements
Abbot Emerson Smith's Colonist in Bondage: White Servitude
and Convict Labor in America, 1607-1776, Edmund Morgan's
American, American Freedom, David W. Galenson's White
Servitude in Colonial America, Anthony Parent Jr.'s Foul
Means, Don Jordon and Michael Walsh's White Cargo, and
others studies of American serfdom. Secondly, considering
that there is currently no other documentary history in
print for other colonies in British America, Escaping
Servitude hopes to inspire similar histories for
eighteenth-century Maryland, North and South Carolina,
Georgia, and the northern colonies. Less known are the
life stories of indentures who absconded in other parts of
British America. Finally, in its explication of the lives
of the unfree, Escaping Servitude hopes to expand the
current academic discourse regarding the history of
slavery and race."--Publisher's description.
