Between 1500 and 1870, some 12 million slaves were shipped from Africa, destined for sale in the New World. This book explains how this came about and the impact of the slave trade both on Africa and the Americas. It considers the suffering and resistance of the slaves themselves through first-hand accounts. Finally, it describes how slavery was abolished and looks at the shadow it has cast down to the present day.
