Two new books by Stephanie Smallwood and Marie Tyler-McGraw expand upon the study of migration and commercial markets by emphasizing the involuntary migrations of Africans and African Americans. Combined with other recent works on the diaspora, such as the collection edited by Matt Childs and Toyin Falola ( The Yoruba in the Atlantic World, Bloomington, IN, 2005), Michael Gomez's Reversing Sail (London, 2004), and the recent spate of research on Black Loyalists that appears at many a conference these days, historians now have a richer picture of what happened to black migrants once they arrived in the New World, a picture that acknowledges the agency of Africans and African Americans.
