John Gabriel Stedman, of Holland, was a lieutenant-colonel in the Dutch military and served in Surinam (Dutch Guiana) where he married a mulatto slave named Joanna and fathered a son. This compilation of excerpts from Stedman's narrative concern Joanna and their son, and begins with Stedman and Joanna's first meeting while she was a slave, their marriage, early life together, difficulty in securing freedom for Joanna and her son. Stedman praises Joanna's personality and sweet nature, describing instances of her loyalty, concern, and devotion during his absences and illnesses. Through Stedman's efforts, both were eventually freed from slavery, but they remained in Surinam when he returned to Holland. In Stedman's account, Joanna refused to return to Europe with him, and he learned about her death soon after his return. Includes two poems at the end of the work, "A Negro Mother's Appeal," and "The Slave-Dealer."

When John Gabriel Stedman’s Narrative of Five Years Expedition was first published in 1796—a bowdlerized edition “full of lies and nonsense”—Stedman claimed to have burned two thousand copies. It nevertheless became an immediate popular success. A first-hand account of an eighteenth-century slave society, including graphic accounts of the worlds of both masters and slaves, it also contained vivid descriptions of exotic plants and animals, of military campaigns, and of romantic adventures. Illustrated by William Blake, Francesco Bartolozzi, and others, Stedman’s work was quickly translated into a half-dozen languages and was eventually published in over twenty-five different editions. The Prices’ acclaimed critical edition is based on Stedman’s original, handwritten manuscript, which offers a portrait at considerable variance with the 1796 classic. The unexpurgated text, presented here with extensive notes and commentary, constitutes one of the richest and most evocative accounts ever written of a flourishing slave society. The Prices restore early omissions involving Stedman’s horror at the Dutch planters’ use of casual torture to discipline their slaves; his love and admiration for Joanna, his mulatto mistress; his strong belief in racial equality; and his outrage that “in 20 Years two millions of People are murdered to Provide us with Coffee & Sugar.” Freed from its original publisher’s censorship, Stedman’s Narrative stands as one of the strongest indictments ever to appear against New World slavery.

JOANNA is a story of love and betrayal based on historic events and real people during the final year of Jesus' earthly ministry. Stroll beside Joanna as she walks with Jesus. Experience with her the unbelievable tragedy as it unfolds. Then join in her life altering joy that follows. Twelve men followed Jesus to become his disciples. Less well known, several women also accompanied the group and contributed financial resources toward Jesus' ministry. The Bible includes Mary, mother of the younger James, Mary Magdalene, Susanna and Joanna. Luke's Gospel then revealed an explosive detail concerning Joanna's husband. Cuza is manager of the palace of King Herod Antipas. With Jesus immediately behind John the Baptist on Herod's short list of enemies, how could Joanna become a Jesus follower? What would have motivated this most unlikely woman to leave her family, along with the comforts of the capital city, and follow this peasant Jewish preacher? Danger abounds as the Roman government her husband represents clashes with the humble, life-changing message of Jesus. The perils only intensify when Jesus adds a former terrorist to his disciples. Can her ability to warn Jesus of threats from Herod's palace offset losing her own family?
