Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Six Months' Service in the African Blockade: From April to October, 1848, in Command of H. M.S. Bonetta
A naturally indolent people are not to be made industrious in a day or a year; but once open a market, and the whole state of society may be altered. The liberated African at Sierra Leone is a good example.
