The Final Victims: Foreign Slave Trade to North America, 1783-1810

James A. McMillin

4.9/5 (10454 ratings)

Description:McMillin examines the volume and business of importing slaves from 1783 to 1810, the African origins of those captives, and their treatment by shippers and North American merchants. Tracing a shift in North American slaving commerce from New England to the lower South, McMillin tracks the vessels that imported slaves to America, particularly into Charleston, Savannah, and New Orleans. McMillin suggests that previous scholars have underestimated the number of slave voyages and consequently the magnitude of American overseas slave trading during this era. He maintains the founding fathers did little to discourage the importation of slaves and asserts that - with the lengthening duration and distance of the notorious "middle passage" - conditions for African captives most likely worsened after the Revolution.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
