      The world of DRUM is a world of brutality, lust and miscegenation… where chained Negroes are sold like cattle…. Where prize specimens, male and female are chosen to work in exotic bordellos, and on slave-breeding plantations… where masters, drunk with the power of life and death, force their slaves to entertain them with unspeakable acts. Slaves and Masters... Tamboura-- born a prince in the jungles of Africa and sold into slavery; his beauty and nobility draw him into a forbidden alliance with blonde Alix, his owner's mistress. Alix-- a French countess, driven to become the most celebrated madam in New Orleans. Don Cesar-- an egocentric patrician whose wealth is the weapon he uses to turn whims into law. Drum-- son of Tamboura and Alix, who becomes the star performer in the mêlées given in his mother's brothel, and the most invincible prize-fighter in the South. Hammond Maxwell-- hates white women and black men, and owns the great slave-breeding plantation, Falconhurst, presided over by an elegant, enigmatic woman he acquires in a strange transaction. Drumson-- sold by his grandmother to sire slaves at Falconhurst, where the evils from the past and present explode in a thunderous slave uprising.

It also is the story of Drummage, the virile and handsome slave who rose to become not only ruler of Falconhurst, but master of the selfish, sensual woman who owned it.

La narración se centra en Maxwell, su hijo Hammond y el esclavo Mandingo Ganimedes o Mede. Mandingo es una historia de crueldad hacia la gente negra de ese tiempo y lugar, que detalla el comportamiento abrumadoramente deshumanizante impuesto a los esclavos, así como las peleas viciosas, el envenenamiento y la muerte violenta.
