The Creole Incident was more than a simple conspiracy of nineteen individuals seeking their freedom. The layers of history surrounding this event conceal a careful, step-by-step process of subterfuge, cunning and boldness taken by a select group of individuals who acted in concert to save the Union from the domination of slavocracy. The Creole Incident reveals an undeniable link that ties the revolt on board the brig Creole with a handful of radical abolitionists, along with some of the highest officials in the United States government at that time and nineteen individuals - who were all slaves. The reason this American saga has remained unknown and little reported for decades can be found in this simple fact: The circumstances surrounding the revolt on board the brig Creole were never intended for public perusal. At the heart of the saga is the love between a man and his wife and their struggle for freedom. The Creole Incident is their story and the story of America.
