These refugees from the French Revolution of 1848 were "homeless, penniless, friendless, strangers in a strange land, among a people of strange speech," as one of their advocates, the abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, later put it. The only thing they had was a story to tell--an affecting, yet thrilling story of revolutionary upheaval, forced exile, and hairbreadth escapes over three continents. Following the June Days uprising in Paris, the three French socialists had been transported first to Algeria, then to Cayenne. After years of hard labor, they had escaped the penal colony and made their way to the United States via British Guiana. These experiences brought them into close contact with the colonial frontiers and slave societies of the Americas. In Salem, Chautard soon published an account of their trials under the title Escapes from Cayenne (1857). His pamphlet, which has long sunk into oblivion, deserves rediscovery. Escapes from Cayenne sheds light on the ideological connections between the European "spirit of 1848" and U.S. radical abolitionism and reveals the scope of cosmopolitan solidarities available to fugitives of different national and racial origins in the mid-nineteenth-century Atlantic world. Written in English by a Frenchman, and reminiscent of literary traditions such as the slave narrative and the picaresque novel, it is a tale of adventure as well as a passionate cri de cÅurfor universal justice." -- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a "This annotated edition of Chautard's 1857 work was first published in the French language in France as LeÌon Chautard : Un socialiste en AmeÌrique (1812-1890) by Anamosa, Paris, France." -- t.p. verso. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 600 10 $a Chautard, LeÌon $x Exile. 650 0 $a Socialists $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Exiles $z France $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Exiles $z French Guiana $x History $y 19th century. 651 0 $a France $x History $y February Revolution, 1848. 651 0 $a Cayenne Island (French Guiana) 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9780820364827 700 1 $a Roy, MichaeÌl, $e editor. $1 https://isni.org/isni/0000000464469588 830 0 $a Race in the Atlantic world, 1700-1900 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240117012816.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4470EB22B50611EEB233F11920ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
