This copy is in fine unmarked condition, bound in brown cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to the spine There are maps to the endpapers. The price clipped dust wrapper is in fine condition. The words 'Back To Africa' embody an idea first put forward in eighteenth century England and made real by the creation of two colonies on the West Africa Coast. Richard West's fascinating book tells the story of the black repatriation movement and shows its continuing relevance to today's world. Two hundred years ago, the large Negro community in London was a cause of much concern and controversy among politicians and journalists. It was the Evangelicals, strong opponents to slavery, who conceived the idea of sending these 'indigent blacks' to Africa where they would not only lead richer lives but bring light to a pagan continent. In 1787 a party of negroes from England founded the colony of Sierra Leone. Thirty five years later, inspired by this experiment and encouraged by zealous white Christians, a party of free American negroes established the colony of Liberia which, in 1847, became an independent republic.
