Now what is there which can justify the Secretary of State, as far at least as the question of inexpediency or of danger is involved, in pursuing such a line of policy with respect to the crown colonies, which would not equally justify its adoption in the case of the colonies having local' ~assemblies The only difference would be that the support which he dz; rives in the one case from an order in council, he must derive in the other from an act of parliament.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the parliamentary debates surrounding the abolition of the British slave trade and slavery. The author argues that the West Indian slave-owning community was largely responsible for preserving the transatlantic slave trade long after its abolition by other European nations and that they continued to resist any meaningful reforms that would have improved the lives of enslaved people. The book examines the ways in which the British Parliament and people gradually came to recognize the evils of slavery and the need for its abolition, despite the powerful resistance of the West Indian lobby. The book provides a valuable historical overview of the abolition movement and the political and economic factors that shaped the debate over slavery in the British Empire. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
