MA NOTE

The true story of the enslavement of the heir to an African Kingdom, Prince Among Slaves follows Abdul Rahman from his capture in Africa and grueling middle passage across the ocean into a life of bondage in America.

First destined to be a leader in his father's kingdom, in a cruel twist of fate, the highly educated young prince found himself instead toiling on a Mississippi plantation. Never wavering in his belief that freedom was his birthright, Abdul Rahman finally re-claimed it forty years on, and soon became the most famous African in America, meeting with President John Quincy Adams and other leading luminaries, before returning at last to the continent of his birth.

Prince Among Slaves paints a vivid picture of the extraordinary times in which an extraordinary man lived, interweaving the universal themes of bondage and deliverance, pride and forbearance, guile and providence.
