Book Synopsis Crowns of Glory, Tears of Blood by : Emília Viotti da Costa
Book excerpt: This text explores the 1823 slave rebellion in Demerara (now Guyana) - one of the largest in history. The 60,000 black slaves who rose up against their British masters were brutally put down. The book looks at the conflict which gave the rebellion life and the forces which finally ended slavery.
