It combines exhaustive research with accessibility, offers a superb overview of the traffic, and provides extensive original documentation of one of the most dramatic and poignant incidents in nineteenth-century maritime history. * David Eltis, Emory University *\u003cbr\u003eDrawing together Kru sailors, Sierra Leonean craftsmen, illegal French slavers, British anti-slavery patrol ships, a corrupt Guadeloupe governor, and British and French politicians, Blaufarb weaves a remarkable tapestry of the historical forces that transformed the slave trade in the nineteenth century. Inhuman Traffick offers a beautifully illustrated panorama of the Atlantic World during the age of emancipation, one that will appeal to students and experts alike. * James Sweet, University of Wisconsin-Madison *\u003cbr\u003eThe use of graphic histories in the classroom is becoming widespread, and Inhuman Traffick shows why they can work so effectively to engage students. Like all of the best examples of the genre, Inhuman Traffick tells a compelling story through a complex interplay of image and text - it will keep students reading, and learning, to the very end. * Randy Sparks, Tulane University *\u003cbr\u003eInhuman Traffick is a tour de force. * Rebecca Hartkopf Schloss, Texas A\u0026amp;M University *\u003cbr\u003eWe are treated to the historical equivalent of 3D cinema as Dr. Blaufarb hits us from all angles: a traditional narrative that is concise and accessible; an innovative graphic history that brings the struggle against the slave trade to life; and a selection of primary sources that underscores the painstaking process by which historians explore the past. This is a truly groundbreaking approach to history. * Philippe Girard, McNeese State University *\u003cbr\u003eMy students will be delighted to have Inhuman Traffick added to their reading list. * Patrick Rael, Bowdoin College *\u003cbr\u003ea welcome addition to booklists for courses on Atlantic and Caribbean history and the history of slavery, plus also those concerned with historical methodology and archival research. * Mary Wills, International Journal of Maritime History *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents ; Maps and Figures ; Preface: The Making of Inhuman Traffick ; About the Author and Illustrator ; Part 1 ; Historical Context ; The Atlantic Environment ; The Slave Trades of Africa ; Who Were the Captives? ; Temporalities of the Trade ; The Middle Passage ; In America ; The Origins of Abolitionism ; Abolition in 1807 ; Internationalizing Abolitionism ; The West African Squadron ; Effects of Interdiction ; Beyond the 1817 Treaties ; Results of British Abolitionism ; How the End of the Transatlantic Slave Trade Effected African Society ; Emancipation in America and Africa ; The Neirsee Incident in Atlantic Context ; Cast of Characters ; Part 2 ; The Graphic History ; Chapter 1: International Efforts Against the Transatlantic Slave Trade ; Chapter 2: The Neirsee Incident ; Chapter 3: Sold into Slavery ; Chapter 4: An International Incident ; Chapter 5: From Happening to History ; Part 3 ; The Primary Sources ; Documents 1-4: West Africa: Seizure of the Neirsee ; Documents 5-10: Caribbean: Enslaved on Guadeloupe ; Documents 11-20: Caribbean: Colonial Authorities in Action ; Documents 21-37: Europe: A Diplomatic Incident ; Part 4 ; The Questions ; Time, space, and technology ; Identities ; Agency ; Slave Trade Database ; Primary Source Documents ; Making of the Graphic History ; Values ; Gaps and Silences ; Timeline of the Atlantic-Slave Trade ; Bibliography ; Glossary","brand":"Oxford University Press Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49524619084119,"sku":"9780199334070","price":42.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/inhuman-traffick-the-international-struggle-against-the-transatlantic-slave-trade-a-graphic-history-graphic-history-series-9780199334070","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
