Description

Addresses debates in the economic history of plantation slavery: the decline of the planter class, the importance of British abolitionism, the way in which plantations were operated, the mechanics of absentee ownership, and, importantly, the lives of the enslaved people whose exploitation sustained the entire system. The story of Chiswick's enslaved workers, gleaned from accounting records and managerial letters, reveals how they were crucial in shaping the history of the estate.
