545 |a Stedman was a British officer in the Dutch army, sent on an expedition against the Maroons who had escaped slavery and taken up arms against the Dutch colonists in Suriname. He soon grows disgusted with his Dutch commander and the brutal treatment of slaves and rebels. He also grows increasingly sympathetic to the culture he was sent to repress, and fathers a child by an enslaved woman who he attempts to bring back to England. Stedman includes an allegorical engraving of "Europe supported by Africa & America," explaining that "we only differ in colour, but are certainly all created by the same Hand" (volume 1, page 395).
