Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from British Slavery and Its Abolition, 1823-1838
The inquiry is confined to the West Indian group of colonies, including British Guiana and British Honduras. There were two other Slave-holding colonies, Mauritius and the Cape of Good Hope; but to have dealt with these - remote in Situation and the latter also in char acter - would, I 'think, have impaired the unity and coherence of the work'.
Acknowledgment is due to Mr. Travers Buxton, Secre tary of the anti-slavery and Aborigines Protection Society, for the loan of an important volume.
