The empire of necessity slavery, freeedom, and deception in the New World
Greg Grandin (Author)
One morning in 1805, off a remote island in the South Pacific, Captain Amasa Delano, a New England seal hunter, climbed aboard a distressed Spanish ship carrying scores of West Africans he thought were slaves. They weren't. Drawing on research on four continents, this book explores the multiple forces that culminated in this extraordinary event.
