# Reize naar Surinamen en door de binnenste gedeelten van Guiana — Compleet

By John Gabriel Stedman.

"Reize naar Surinamen en door de binnenste gedeelten van Guiana — Compleet" by John Gabriël Stedman is a travel account published in Dutch in 1799. This firsthand narrative chronicles a five-year military expedition against escaped slaves in Suriname, beginning in 1773. Stedman documents the brutal realities of colonial slavery, the organized resistance of freedom fighters, and the devastating cost of warfare in the tropics. His observations of nature, plantation life, and colonial cruelty shaped European perceptions of slavery and its abolition. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
