Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a powerful and disturbing look at the realities of the slave trade, published in 1855, just as the movement to abolish slavery was gaining momentum. Based on firsthand accounts gathered from witnesses who testified before a Select Committee of the House of Commons, it provides a chilling glimpse into the cruelty and inhumanity of the trade. The author delves into the horrific practices used to capture slaves in Africa, including kidnapping, warfare, and false accusations, shedding light on the barbarity of the system and its impact on the lives of countless people. The book also examines the treatment of slaves once they reached the West Indies, exposing the brutality of plantation life and the powerlessness of enslaved people. Though published more than a century and a half ago, the book's insights remain relevant and poignant, offering a crucial reminder of the human cost of slavery and the importance of fighting for social justice.
