Chapter 18

In Chapter 18 of the book Bury the Chains, Adam Hoschchild takes us to Latin America and the spreading of revolts in those countries. There is a volcano eruption that initiated a revolt that became chaotic. Slaves became very violent; they attacked and started fights with other and with slave owners/the white population. The St. Dominigue was a revolt that involved slaves and as well as mulattos. Yellow fever and malaria started to spread throughout the soliders, which lead the Britain's defeat.
