Escape to the City
Fugitive Slaves in the Antebellum Urban South
Examines runaways who camouflaged themselves among the free Black populations in Baltimore, Charleston, New Orleans, and Richmond. Viola Franziska Muller reveals how urbanization, work opportunities, and the interconnectedness of free and enslaved African Americans determined how successfully runaways could remain invisible to authorities.
