The Willie Lynch Letter and The Making of A Slave is a speech delivered by Willie Lynch to an audience on the bank of the James River in Virginia in 1712 regarding control of slaves within the colony. The speaker; William Lynch; is said to have been a slave owner in the West Indies; and was summoned to Virginia in 1712; in part due to several slave revolts in the area prior to his visit; and more so because of his reputation of being an authoritarian and strict slave master. The Willie Lynch Letter is an account of a short speech given by Willie Lynch; in which he tells other slave owners that he has discovered the "secret" to controlling enslaved Africans by setting them against one another.

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Beautiful Pics...but no historyBy N. RaukkoThis is mainly a picture book with very little type or even explanations of the designs. It does have beautiful photographs but I was trying to find a book that included the history of Islamic tiles or instructions in designing them. It is a great book of examples; if that is what you are looking for.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful.
