Chains, written by Laurie Halse Anderson, is the first in the Seeds of America trilogy of young-adult historical novels, published in the United States on October 21, 2008. The story follows Isabel, a teenaged African-American slave striving for her and her younger sister's freedom during the American Revolutionary War. Chains takes place mainly in New York City in 1776 into 1777, at a time when slavery was legal and common in the Thirteen Colonies. The book is followed by sequels Forge (2010) and Ashes (2016).
