About this title

Synopsis

Written by a team of historians under the auspices of the Smithsonian Institution, Captive Passage examines the complex causes, outcomes and legacies of the 400-year transatlantic slave trade. The physical, social and emotional meaning of the Middle Passage is explored, as are the history of the abolitionist movement and the struggle for racial justice. This impressive 8 1/2 x 11 book contains over 200 photos of art and artifacts as well as historical figures and documentation.
