1879 1ed Six Months on a Slaver AFRICAN Slavery Kru Manning Slave Narrative RARE
Edward Manning’s “Six Months on a Slavery” is an incredible, first-hand account of life on a slave ship. This book covers the struggles of slaves, practices of slave ship guards, and descriptions of the Kru people on the Grain and Ivory coasts of Africa. It also includes notes on English ships and voyaging; however, as expected, the draw of this book is the information relating to the acquisition and delivery of African slaves.
