　　In this path-breaking book Linda Colley reappraises the rise

of the biggest empire in global history. Excavating the lives of

some of the multitudes of Brit*** held captive in the lands their

own rulers sought to conquer, Colley also offers an intimate

understanding of the peoples and cultures of the Mediterranean,

North America, India, and Afghanistan.

Here are harrowing, sometimes poignant stories by soldiers and

sailors and thei***omenfolk, by traders and con men and by white as

well as black slaves. By exploring these f***otten captives – and

their captors – Colley reveals how Britain’s emerging empire was

often tentative and subject to profound insecurities and

limitati***. She evokes how British empire was experienced by the

mass of poo***hites who created it. She shows how imperial racism

coexisted with cross-cultural collaborati***, and how the gulf

between Protestantism and Islam, which some have viewed as central

to this empire, was often smaller than expected. Brilliantly

written and richly illustrated, Captives is an invitation to think

again about a piece of history too often viewed in the same old

way. It is also a powerful contribution to current debates about

the meanings, persistence, and drawbacks of empire.
