Description
The transatlantic slave trade was a complex and multifaceted history that spanned centuries. Inhuman Traffick presents this story in a unique way, using graphic illustrations to bring it to life. Beginning with the recapture of the slave ship Neirsée in 1829, off the west coast of Africa, the book follows the journey of the ship, its crew, and its captives as they navigate the Atlantic world. The history of the transatlantic slave trade is often told from a European perspective, but Inhuman Traffick offers a fresh approach by situating the story in the wider geographical and thematic contexts in which it took place. The book explores how documents on slavery moved through time and space, from ships to archives, and sheds light on the diplomatic history of the era. Through its vivid drawings and rich narrative, Inhuman Traffick provides a compelling and immersive learning experience for students and anyone interested in this period of history.
