"Excellent collection of essays highlights recent interpretive currents in the study of runaway slaves. While providing several perspectives on Palmares, the collection also examines runaway slave communities in the Amazon region, Maranhão, Pernambuco, Bahia, Rio Grande do Sul, Rio de Janeiro, Goiás, Mato Grosso, and Minas Gerais. Highly recommended"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
