Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book examines the dark history of commercial slavery in America, shedding light on its origins, rise, and eventual decline. The author traces the transatlantic slave trade from its beginnings in the 15th century to its abolition in the 19th century, revealing the role played by European nations, particularly England and Portugal, in perpetuating this heinous practice. The book delves into the legal and political frameworks that supported slavery, highlighting the stark contrast between the ideals of the American Declaration of Independence and the reality of a Constitution that recognized the ownership of human beings. The author also explores the devastating impact of slavery on the lives of millions of Africans and their descendants, examining the physical, emotional, and cultural toll it took. Ultimately, this book provides valuable insights into the complex history of slavery in America, challenging readers to confront the legacy of oppression and injustice that continues to shape society today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
