Introduction
1. Sources of information
2. Methods by which the slaves are supplied in Africa
3. Slave trade's effects in the interior and on the coast
4. Proof of abolitionists' facts decisive, and contrary allegations groundless
5. Plea against abolition, that Negroes are an inferior race
6. Opponents' description of Negro character contrasted with other accounts
7. Argument from Africa's never having been civilized, considered
8. New phaenomenon - interior of Africa more civilized than coast
9. Plea of opponents, that slaves state in Africa extremely miserable
10. Plea from cruelty of African despots
11. Ditto, that refused slaves would be massacred in case of abolition
12. Middle passage
13. Opponents' grand objection - that stock of slaves cannot be kept up in West Indies without importations
14. Presumptive arguments against the above allegation, from universal experience
15. Positive proof that the stock of slaves might be kept up without importations - argument stated
1. Abuses sufficient to account for great decrease
2. Yet, though abuses so great, the decrease quite inconsiderable
3. Hence, abuses being corrected, slaves would rapidly increase
Appendix
Letter to His Excellency the Prince of Talleyrand Perigord on the subject of the slave trade (1814).
