Book Description
Indigo is the story of this precious dye and its ancient heritage: its relationship to slavery as the "hidden half" of the transatlantic slave trade, its profound influence on fashion, and its spiritual significance. It is an untold story, brimming with rich, electrifying tales of those who shaped the course of colonial history and a world economy.
