Hardback. Zustand: Good. The chance discovery of the log of a slave ship - the "Daniel and Henry" which set sail from Dartmouth in 1700, bound for the Guinea Coast - prompted Nigel Tattersfield to make this investigation into an episode in England's provincial maritime history. After an Act of Parliament in 1698 released monopoly on trading in West Africa, respectable burghers in a dozen small provincial ports seized their chance of quick rewards from human souls. This book provides an insight into the world of these merchants who knew nothing of trading in Africa, nor of the unscrupulous tribal chiefs who readily offered men, women and children in hard bargaining for beads, alcohol, weapons and gunpowder. After months at sea, what remained alive of the human cargo, stacked in chains on platforms in sweltering heat below deck, was delivered into the hands of rich plantation owners in the West Indies and North America in exchange for sugar, cotton, rice or tobacco. The author draws on long-forgotten documents to chart how the ports of Deal, Lyme Regis, Exeter, Falmouth, Whitehaven, among others, fared both economically and morally in the frantic early years of slaving when so much was won and lost.…

About the book >.>.> Those children of the eighteenth century fortunate enough to possess books took as keen a delight in the illustrations as do their counterparts of today. Although the vast majority of the artist- craftsmen who designed the illustrations and executed them on wood or copper remain irretrievably anonymous, a few can be identified. Because of the acclaim with which his older brother Thomas was greeted for his superlative wood engravings of animals and birds, John Bewick's name was never entirely forgotten. Such was the brilliance of his brother's skill and reputation how- ever, that it has largely obscured recognition of John Bewick's own life and his consider- able achievements as a wood engraver. Yet John Bewick was one of the earliest, if not the earliest, designer-engravers in England to make his living almost exclu- sively by illustrating books; and his popular- ity resulted in his contributing illustrations and engravings to no less than sixty titles - mostly children's books - during a tragicall.…
