Black Redcoats by Matthew Taylor
This book brings black history to the fore of the War of 1812, and gives voice those enslaved people who - amidst great power competition between a slave-holding Republic and a slave-holding Empire demonstrated exceptional bravery and initiative to gain precious freedom for themselves and their descendants.
Matthew Taylor is a Civil Servant who has worked for the British House of Lords for over a decade. A history enthusiast with particular focus on little-known stories that confound common historical narratives; his time at the heart of British politics has taught him the value of history in allowing us to better know ourselves today, and work toward a greater future. He is from Middlesbrough, UK. This is his first book.
