Cox Haley, Roots, by Richard Price 315 Book Notes 329 Notes and Queries 332 Can You Identify This 333 The spectacular success of Alex Haley's Roots, both as a bestseller and a TV blockbuster, follows a decade of brilliant scholarship on the subject of slavery in the United States. Coming as it does on the heels of the election of the first southern president in over a century, and one whose election was significantly aided by the black vote, the Roots phenomenon may herald a rising sensitivity on the part of whites as well as blacks to the richness of the Afro-American ex- perience. Readers interested in the topic of slavery will find a distinguished body of writing, for no other field of our common history has attracted better scholars, and upon no other subject in the last two decades has such an abundance of seminal books been published. Any list of titles-to-be-consulted should include: Kenneth M. Stampp, The Peculiar Institution (1956); Stanley M. Elkins, Slavery (1959); Richard C. Wade, Slavery in the Cities (1964); Eugene D. Genovese, The Political Economy of Slavery (1965) and Roll Jordan Roll: The World the Slaves Made (1975); David Brion Davis, The Problem of Slavery in Western Culture (1966) and The Problem of Slavery in the Age of Revolution, 1770-1823 (1975); Winthrop D. Jordan, White Over Black: American Attitudes Toward the Negro, 1550-1812 (1968); Phillip D. Curtin, The Atlantic Slave Trade: A Census (1969); R. S. Starobin, Industrial Slavery in the Old South (1970); Carl N. Degler, Neither Black Nor White: Slavery and Race Relations in Brazil and the United States (1971); John W. Blassingame, The Slave Community: Plantation Life in the Antebellum South (1972); Gerald T. Mullen, Flight and Rebellion: Slave Resistance in Eighteenth-Century Virginia (1972); George Rawick, From Sun- down to Sunup: The Making of the Black Community (1972); Robert W. Fogel and Stanley L. Engerman, Time on the Cross, 2 vols. (1974); Ira Berlin, Slaves Without Masters: Free Blacks in the Antebellum South (1974); Peter Wood, Black Majority: Negroes in Colonial South Carolina from 1670 through the Stono Re- bellion (1974); Edmund S. Morgan, American Slavery, American Freedom: The Ordeal of Colonial Virginia (1975); Herbert G. Gutman, The Black Family in Slavery and Freedom, 1750-1925 (1976); Sidney W. Mintz and Richard Price, An Anthropological Approach to the Afro-American Past (1976); and Lawrence W. Levine, Black Culture and Black Consciousness: Afro-American Folk Thought From Slavery to Freedom (1977). The footnotes and bibliographies of these works will lead the reader to the vast corpus of more specialized literature. Although there is no general book on slavery in Maryland, the holdings of the Maryland Historical Society include materials that extensively document the local black experience. The Society, a private organization, does not have suffi- cient staff to guide a novice's probings, and indeed, the manuscript collection is restricted to those familiar with historical research. But persons seriously interested in the black heritage of Maryland should be aware of the Society's collections. Manuscript sources were surveyed by Nancy G. Boles, "Black History CoWeciions," Mayland Historical Magazine, 66 (Spring 1971): 72-78, and the other guides and catalogs available will direct the student to relevant sources. The Society is interested in all aspects of the state's history, and seeks to expand its resources and services. Everyone who respects his heritage and wants to build on it should support the acquisition, processing, exhibition, and publication programs of the Maryland Historical Society. John B.

Maryland first celebrated its founding in 1834 and has continued to do so in 50 year intervals. The pattern for celebrating thus established, Maryland was ready as 1984 approached to look back with pride on 350 years of political, social and cultural achievement. As in previous an- niversaries, the celebration of the past became an affirmation of the future. To prepare the state for its 1984 celebration, the 1982 General Assembly of Maryland passed a resolution (Appendix i) creating the 350 Coordinating Com- mittee which subsequently became the Maryland Heritage Committee.

  • Leaving the Mm:J.In to Ply About Lundy, for Securing Trade
    Rep. Lundy Field Soc. 4 7 IN THE SHADOW OF THE BLACK ENSIGN: LUNDY'S PART IN PIRACY By C.G. HARFIELD Flat 4, 23 Upperton Gardens, Eastboume, BN21 2AA Pirates! The word simultaneously conjures images of fear, violence and brutality with evocations of adventure on the high seas, swashbuckling heroes and quests for buried treasure. Furthermore, the combination of pirates and islands excites romantic fascination (Cordingly 1995, 162-6), perhaps founded upon the popular and sanitised anti-heroes of literature such as Long John Silver and Captain Hook (Mitchell discusses how literature has romanticised piracy, 1976, 7-10). This paper aims to discover, as far as possible, the part Lundy had to play in piracy in British waters, and to place that in perspective. The nature of the sources for piracy around Lundy will be discussed elsewhere (Harfield, forthcoming); here the story those sources tell is presented. It is not a story of deep-water pirates who traversed the oceans in search of bullion ships, but rather an illustration of the nature of coastal piracy with the bulk of the evidence coming from the Tudor and Stuart periods. LUNDY AS A LANDMARK IN THE EVIDENCE The majority of references to Lundy and pirates mention the island only as a landmark (Harfield, forthcoming). Royal Navy ships are regularly recorded plying the waters between the Scilly Isles, Lundy and the southern coasts of Wales and Ireland (see fig. I) with the intention of clearing these waters of pirates, both British and foreign. For instance, Captain John Donner encountered English pirates ':fifteen miles distant from Lundy Isle" in April 155 7 (7.3.1568, CSP(D)).
