Description

Glasgow, the Clyde and Slavery by David Pettigrew This book explores the lesser-known history of slavery in Glasgow, a city with a complex and often contradictory past. The author delves into the lives of the people who were enslaved, the traders and merchants who profited from their labour, and the social and economic structures that enabled this system. Through a combination of historical research and narrative storytelling, Pettigrew sheds light on a period of British history that has often been overlooked. By examining the intersection of slavery, trade, and urban development, the book provides a nuanced understanding of the city's history and its ongoing impact on contemporary society. With 120 pages of detailed research and analysis, Glasgow, the Clyde and Slavery offers a fascinating and thought-provoking exploration of a pivotal moment in British history.
