Anti-Slavery and Australia (eBook, PDF)

No Slavery in a Free Land?

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Bringing the histories of British anti-slavery and Australian colonization together changes our view of both. This book explores the anti-slavery movement in imperial scope, arguing that colonization in Australasia facilitated emancipation in the Caribbean, even as abolition powerfully shaped the Settler Revolution.
