Samenvatting
Starting in 1780, a fugitive slave, known as ""Three-Fingered Jack"", terrorized colonial Jamaica for almost two years. An outlaw, thief, and killer, he was also a freedom fighter. Frances R. Botkin has compiled and analysed the various plays and songs written about Three-Fingered Jack throughout the centuries in order to show how this story travelled from the Caribbean to England and the US.
