Description

While much is known about Britain's role in the eighteenth-century Atlantic slave trade, the sustained campaign led by the Royal Navy after the 1807 Slave Trade Abolition Act remains less understood. In Opposing the Slavers, Peter Grindal provides a definitive account of this significant period in British, European, and American history. Drawing on original sources, this book offers a comprehensive narrative of naval operations against traders of all nations. Grindal focuses on the efforts to stop illegal traders from countries such as Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, and Brazil. This work serves as an essential resource for readers interested in maritime history and the global fight against the slave trade.
