Tomblin examines the relationship between the union Navy and the contrabands. The navy set up colonies for former slaves and, in return, some contrabands served as crewmen on ships and gunboats and as river pilots, spies, and guides. Tomblin focuses on the contrabands and casts light on contributions of African Americans to the Union Navy and the Union cause.
