The book combines economic  social  political  cultural  and demographic history  with a particular focus on the Atlantic world and the plantations of North America and the West Indies from the mid-seventeenth century onwards.  Kenneth Morgan analyses the distribution of slaves within the empire and how this changed over time; the world of merchants and planters; the organization and impact of the triangular slave trade; the work and culture of the enslaved; slave demography; health and family life; resistance and rebellions; the impact of the anti-slavery movement; and the abolition of the British slave trade in 1807 and of slavery itself in most of the British empire in 1834.  As well as providing the ideal introduction to the history of British involvement in the slave trade  this book also shows just how deeply embedded slavery was in British domestic and imperial history - and just how long it took for British involvement in slavery to die  even after emancipation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67600291823669,"sku":"ByrdShop_0192892916","price":52.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780192892911.jpg?v=1790968095","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/slavery-british-empirefrom-africa-to-america-paper-from-africa-to-america-9780192892911","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
