About The Book: "Slavery in India: The Present State of East India Slavery" by James Peggs is a critical examination of the condition of slavery in India during the British colonial period, primarily based on parliamentary reports. Published in the 19th century, Peggs' work highlights…the prevalence and brutal realities of slavery, emphasizing the need for reform and abolition. The book sheds light on the exploitation faced by enslaved individuals and serves as an important historical document, advocating for humanitarian intervention and policy changes by the British authorities to address and eradicate slavery in their Indian territories. About The Author: James Peggs (1793-1850) was a British missionary and social reformer known for his activism against the practice of Sati, the ritual burning of Hindu widows.
