In reaction to the plot, the Virginia and other legislatures passed restrictions on free blacks, as well as on the education, movement, and hiring out of the enslaved. Although Gabriel's conspiracy is well known among historians, documents relating to it have remained relatively inaccessible. In \u003ci\u003eGabriel's Conspiracy, \u003c\/i\u003e Philip J. Schwarz offers a valuable selection of the documents discovered to date. Together with Michael Nicholls's complementary book, \u003ci\u003eWhispers of Rebellion\u003c\/i\u003e (Virginia), these volumes offer a complete account of the quashed slave conspiracy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Virginia Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47572715962519,"sku":"9780813932941","price":7838.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780813932941.webp?v=1774890916","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/gabriels-conspiracy-a-documentary-history-9780813932941","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
