Slavery and Freedom in the British West Indies

By: Buxton, Charles

Buxton's account of the slave system and its abolition in the British West Indies is a seminal work on the subject. With firsthand experience of the region, he provides a detailed examination of the social, economic, and political contexts that shaped the institution of slavery and ultimately led to its demise. Buxton also highlights the role of abolitionist movements and the enslaved themselves in the fight for freedom.
