About This Item
New York: George Braziller Inc, 1998. First edition, stated. First book by this author. In the years after the American Revolution, London was the unlikely refuge for thousands of black Americans who had fought for the British in exchange for a promise of freedom. This story follows the adventures of three African-American rogues who have escaped their master's lash only to find themselves outcasts once againthis time on the harsh streets of London's West End. Penniless, without any prospects for employment, and treated as outsiders by British society, Buckram, Georgie George, and William Supple are forced into a life of hustling and petty crime. Their only hope for escape, Georgie convinces them, is an outrageous robbery that would make them rich beyond their wildest dreams. New in new dustjacket.. First Edition. Hard Cover.
