The Fires of Jubilee by Stephen B. Oates Book Summary

“A penetrating reconstruction of the most disturbing and crucial slave uprising in America’s history”—with the full text of The Confessions of Nat Turner (New York Times).

In August of 1831, the enslaved carpenter and preacher Nat Turner led an anti-slavery uprising in Virginia. It lasted several days before state militias captured Turner and put him on trial. Before he was executed, Turner recounted the unbearable conditions he endured and how he secretly built support for his cause over many years. Turner’s Rebellion, and the savage reprisals that followed, shattered longstanding myths of the contented slave and the benign master.

Turner’s story and tactics also inspired the abolitionist movement, intensifying the forces of change that would plunge America into Civil War. Stephen B. Oates, the celebrated biographer of Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King, Jr., presents a gripping and insightful narrative of the rebellion—the complex, gifted, and driven man who led it, the social conditions that produced it, and the legacy it left. 

The Fires of Jubilee is a classic wok of American history. This new edition includes the text of the original 1831 court document "The Confessions of Nat Turner."
