Originally published in 1856, The Kidnapped and the Ransomed is the personal recollection of Peter Still, a black slave. He was stolen as a child from his home in New Jersey, yoked to servitude for more than forty years in Kentucky and Alabama, and finally freed with the help of a pair of Jewish brothers. It is the only nineteenth-century slave narrative to show the participation of the Jews in the antislavery movement before the Civil War. The reader follows Still through a succession of brutal masters, a clandestine courtship, marriage involving separation, births and deaths, the formation of a daring plan for freedom, and harrowing action. No stage drama could be as wrenching as this true rendering of a slave's experience in America. Kate E. R. Pickard was in contact with Still while she taught at the Female Seminary in Tuscumbia, Alabama. Maxwell Whiteman was the archival and historical consultant for the Union League of Philadelphia and coauthor, with Edwin Wolf II, of The History of the Jews of Philadelphia from Colonial Times to the Age of Jackson. The original introduction by Rev. Samuel J. May, an abolitionist, has been retained.

Based on a true story, 'RANSOMED' recounts how Henri de Mortelast, the head of a vast international conglomerate, is kidnapped while holidaying in the South of France and a ranspm demanded for his release. While arrangements for payment are made, the situation is complicated by a series of unexpected events involving his family, friends and business associates. Then a forest fire devastates the property where Henri is being held and his captors have to flee, leaving him to the mercy of the flames. Will he survive? But who was behind his kidnapping and who, apart from his captors, was to benefit from it? A business associate? His brother Maurice? His current girl friend who has just ditched him? The action takes us from a luxury pad in New York's Sutton Place, to casinos and villas on the Franch Riviera, banks and luxury hotels in Geneva and the dark cellar where Henri is held captive.
