Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the dark history of the Coolie trade, a system of indentured labour that emerged in the British colonies after the abolition of slavery. The author meticulously uncovers the origins of this trade, tracing its roots back to the anxieties of plantation owners facing a potential labour shortage following the emancipation of enslaved Africans. The narrative exposes the exploitative practices employed to lure or coerce individuals from India into signing contracts, often under false pretences, to work on plantations in far-off lands like Mauritius and British Guiana. The appalling conditions these labourers endured, including physical abuse, deplorable living quarters, and inadequate medical care, are brought to light through official documents, eyewitness accounts, and the author's own investigations. The book also sheds light on the complicity of colonial authorities and the indifference of plantation owners towards the plight of the Coolies. Despite facing mounting evidence of abuse and mistreatment, efforts to hold perpetrators accountable were met with resistance and attempts to downplay the severity of the situation. Ultimately, this book serves as a powerful indictment of the Coolie trade, revealing its disturbing parallels to the horrors of slavery and underscoring the enduring struggle for human rights and dignity in the face of exploitation.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the depths of abolitionist sentiments prevalent during the mid-19th century, focusing particularly on the establishment of slavery and the slave trade within Texas. The author presents a compelling argument against the recognition of Texas as an independent state by Great Britain, emphasizing the moral imperative to condemn the abhorrent practices of slavery and oppression. Within its pages, the author provides historical context, exploring the political and economic factors that fueled the reestablishment of slavery in Texas and its detrimental impact on the region's development. The book delves into the complexities of the British government's delicate position, considering the potential economic benefits of recognizing Texas against the moral duty to uphold their abolitionist stance. Through a critical examination of the arguments put forth by those advocating for recognition, the author effectively dismantles their claims, exposing their flawed logic and narrow self-interest. Ultimately, this book serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring struggle for human rights and the vital role that nations must play in opposing the forces of oppression.
