This volume introduces a new way to study the experiences of runaway slaves by defining different ?spaces of freedom? that fugitive slaves inhabited. It also provides a groundbreaking continental view of fugitive slave migration, moving beyond the usual regional or national approaches to explore locations in Canada, the U.S. South, Mexico, and the Caribbean.
