This books shows the role of the Negro in colonial New England.
Negro slaves were brought into the region in such numbers that they
influenced the economical, political, social and religious
institutions of their masters. The leading slave-trading colonies
were Massachusetts and Rhode Island; Connecticut and New Hampshire
played lesser roles. The main ports were Boston and Newport, but
Salem, Kittery, Providence, Bristol, Charlestown, Middletown and
New London were also connected with the trade. This book presents
the social repercussions, slave occupations, crimes and punishment,
the slave before the law, the slave family, relationship between
master and slave, slavery and conversion and the free Negro. Also
included is a summary, bibliography and the original full-name plus
subject index. An appendix is included which shows the distribution
of Negroes by states and counties, numbers of burials and baptisms,
and a list of leading slave-holding families.
