Solid hardcover. ; "Zamba Zembola (born c. 1780) is the supposed author of an 1847 slave narrative, The Life and Adventures of Zamba, an African Negro King; and his Experience of Slavery in South Carolina, which describes his kidnapping and 40 years of labor as a slave on a plantation in the US state of South Carolina. The work was edited by Peter Neilson, a Scottish abolitionist. Some scholars believe the book is not a genuine slave narrative, but is fiction written by Neilson. Neilson refused to produce Zamba for inspection by anyone else." - Wikipedia. ; The Black Heritage Library Collection; Ex-Library; xx, 258 pages.
