Gerbi manages to rise to the vastness of his theme with lucid, vibrant, unstereotyped phrasing, and he can also make unobtrusive, witty comments that enliven the whole thing."-Glauco Cambon From the professional library of Dr. Philip D. Morgan, a professor of History at Johns Hopkins University. Morgan specializes in the African-American experience, the history of slavery, the early Caribbean, and the study of the early Atlantic world.
