    This narrative indicates that the traders were at great pains to keep their cargo healthy and relatively happy
  

*by W***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2015*

This is a most interesting book. It is edited from the journal of a ship's officer on his first slaving tour. This narrative indicates that the traders were at great pains to keep their cargo healthy and relatively happy! A healthy slave would, not surprisingly, fetch a higher price at the dock in the Americas. This account turns most of the "Middle Passage" stories upside down.An essential read, I should say.

    Great
  

*by S***. on Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2015*

This book was wonderful. So many aspects of the slave trade are left out when you learn about it in school. This filled in the gaps. This put everything in perspective and it made sense. Especially the profiteering, everyone wanted a cut from the Africans that enslaved to the African kings that sold to the Europeans who bought and sold to the crews on the ships. Well worth the read to be further educated.
