David Drake, also known as Dave the Potter, was born enslaved in Edgefield, South Carolina, at the turn of the nineteenth century. Drake was literate and signed some of his pots, not only with his name and a date, but with verse - making a powerful statement of resistance. This volume presents multifaceted scholarship about Drake and his craft.
