Rough crossings:

Simon Schama's movig history of black loyalism takes the reader to journey of terror and hope, ordeal and redamption, down torrid river basins into the fire and blood of battle; through the frozen waters of Nova Scotian winter ant into the furious ocean where the men and women at the heart of this unforgettable history hoped thet freedom's shore would finally greet them. What they endured, what they expected, what they found, what they said and what they suffered light up the pages of this startling, impassioned book, a new departure of Britain's most original historian.
