N2  - "Reize naar Surinamen en door de binnenste gedeelten van Guiana — Deel 1" by John Gabriël Stedman is a travel narrative published in 1799. Originally written in English, this account chronicles a military expedition against escaped slaves in Suriname during the 1770s. Stedman documents the brutal realities of colonial slavery, describing military campaigns, plantation life, and the courageous resistance of freedom fighters. 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.
