Publisher's Synopsis
""A View Of The Present State Of The African Slave Trade"" is a book published in 1824 by the Religious Society of Friends, also known as Quakers. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the African slave trade during the early 19th century. It includes detailed descriptions of the conditions of slaves, the methods of capture and transportation, and the economic and political factors that drove the trade. The authors argue that the slave trade is morally reprehensible and that it should be abolished. They also provide recommendations for how to achieve this goal, including diplomatic pressure, economic sanctions, and education campaigns. The book is a powerful indictment of the slave trade and a call to action for those who seek to end it. It is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the attitudes and beliefs of abolitionists during this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
