Micha\u00ebl Roy (Athens: University of Georgia Press, 2023)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In September 1857, L\u00e9on Chautard, Charles Bivors, and Hippolyte Paon arrived in Salem, Massachusetts. These refugees from the French Revolution of 1848 were \u201chomeless, penniless, friendless, strangers in a strange land, among a people of strange speech,\u201d as one of their advocates, the abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, later put it. The only thing they had was a story to tell\u2014an affecting, yet thrilling story of revolutionary upheaval, forced exile, and hairbreadth escapes over three continents.<\/p>\n<p>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 <em>Escapes from Cayenne<\/em> (1857). His pamphlet, which has long sunk into oblivion, deserves rediscovery.<\/p>\n<p><em>Escapes from Cayenne<\/em> sheds light on the ideological connections between the European \u201cspirit of 1848\u201d 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 c\u0153ur for universal justice.<\/p>\n<p>Lien vers le site de l&rsquo;\u00e9diteur: <a
