Originally written in English, this account chronicles a military expedition against escaped slaves in Suriname during the 1770s.

His shocking observations of Dutch cruelty toward enslaved people helped shape European perceptions of slavery. The Dutch edition controversially removed passages expressing sympathy for the rebels.
