Description

"Human Cargoes is the first book-length study to explore the nature and dimensions of the British slave trade to the Spanish empire during a period when Britain dominated that grim traffic.  Palmer's presentation of new documentary evidence - drawn from the hitherto unstudied records in the British Museum, the London Public Record Office, and the Archivo de Indias in Seville - makes Human Cargoes a primary addition to the historiography of the black experience in the New World."  ~from the back cover of Human Cargoes

 

This book is a volume in the series Blacks in the New World, edited by August Meier.
