The book is a collection of letters written by Sancho, a former slave, to his friends and acquaintances. The letters are a testament to Sancho’s intelligence, wit, and humanity, and provide insight into the experiences of a black man living in England during the 18th century. The book is prefaced with a memoir of Sancho’s life, which details his early years as a slave in the British colony of Grenada, his escape to England, and his rise to prominence as a writer and composer.
