520 In the early 18th century, the Dutch colony of Suriname
was the envy of all others in the Americas. There, seven
hundred Europeans lived off the labor of over four
thousand enslaved Africans. Owned by men hell-bent for
quick prosperity, the rich plantations on the Suriname
river became known for their heights of planter comfort
and opulence--and for their depths of slave misery. Slaves
who tried to escape were hunted by the planter militia. If
found they were publicly tortured. Gradually slaves began
to form outlaw communities until nearly one out of every
ten Africans in Suriname was helping to build rebel
villages in the jungle. This book relates the history of a
nation founded by escaped slaves deep in the Latin
American rain forest. It tells of their battles for
independence, their uneasy truce with the colonial
government, and the attempt of their leader, Alabi, to
reconcile his people with white law and a white God.
