Insurgency - by Andrew M Scott (Paperback)

About the Book

This richly illustrated book offers a glimpse into the lives and creativity of African American quilters during the era of slavery. Originally published in 1989, Stitched from the Soul was the first book to examine the history of quilting in the enslaved community and to place slave-made quilts into historical and cultural context.

Book Synopsis

This sensible and timely study uses tools and insights from a variety of academic disciplines, including economics, and its approach has been shaped by the perspectives of systems analysis. An insurgent movement is viewed as a system of inputs and outputs directed by control mechanisms.

Originally published 1970.
