About The Book: The Indian Mutiny of 1857, also known as the Sepoy Rebellion, was a major uprising against British rule in India. It began with a revolt by Indian soldiers (sepoys) in the British East India Company’s army, sparked by grievances over issues like the use of animal fat in rifle cartridges, which offended Hindu and Muslim religious beliefs. The mutiny spread across northern and central India, with significant uprisings in cities like Delhi, Kanpur, and Lucknow. Although it was eventually suppressed, the rebellion led to the dissolution of the East India Company and the direct control of India by the British Crown. About The Author: Charles Ball (1780–1836) was an enslaved African American best known for his autobiography, Slavery in the United States (1836). Written with Isaac Fisher’s help, it chronicles Ball’s life as a slave in Maryland, South Carolina, and Georgia, as well as his service in the U.S. Navy during the War of 1812. The memoir vividly portrays the brutal realities of slavery, highlighting his separation from his family, severe punishments, and eventual escape. Ball's narrative provides an invaluable first-hand account of the suffering endured by enslaved people, making it a crucial contribution to the history of slavery in America.
