The slave trade : the story of the Atlantic slave trade, 1440-1870 | WorldCat.org (original) (raw)

pt. 1. Green Sea of Darkness: What heart could be so hard?

Humanity is divided into two

The slaves who find the gold are all black

The Portuguese served for setting dogs to spring the game

I herded them as if they had been cattle

The best and strongest slaves available

For the love of God, give us a pair of slave women

The white men arrived in ships with wings

pt. 2. The Internationalization of the Trade: A good correspondence with the blacks

The black slave is the basis of the hacienda

Lawful to set to sea

He who knows how to supple the slaves will share his wealth

pt. 3. Apogee: No nation has plunged so deeply into this guilt as Great Britain

By the grace of God

pt. 4. The Crossing: A filthy voyage

Great pleasure from our wine

Slave harbors I

Slave harbors II

A great strait for slaves

The blackest sort with short curled hair

If you want to learn how to pray, go to sea

God knows what we shall do with those that remain

pt. 5. Abolition: Above all a good soul

The loudest yelps for liberty

The gauntlet had been thrown down

Men in Africa of as fine feeling as ourselves

Why should we see Great Britain getting all the slave trade?

pt. 6. The Illegal Era: I see ... we have not yet begun the golden age

The slaver is more criminal than the assassin

Only the poor speak ill of the slave trade

Active exertions

Slave harbors of the nineteenth century

Sharks are the invariable outriders of all slave ships

Can we resist the torrent? I think not

They all eagerly desire it, protect it and almost sanctify it

Cuba, the forward sentinel
