Royal Attitudes to the Atlantic Slave Trade and Abolition in the Late Eighteenth and Early Nineteenth Centuries
Recent historiography has placed particular emphasis on the social origins and influence of individuals who took opposing sides in debates on the abolition of the slave trade between 1787 and 1807. There is no doubt that family networks and connections influenced patterns of pro-slavery and abolitionist support. Despite this familial focus, comparatively little attention has been paid to the attitudes and interventions in the debate of King Georg…
Land and Settlement
This article analyses how the Koya Temne on the Sierra Leone peninsula resisted attempts by British abolitionists to assume control over their land in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Following attacks on Freetown by neighboring leaders in 1801 and 1802, officials of the Sierra Leone Company (a chartered trading company formed in 1791) claimed that the Temne recourse to war was totally unjustified, as well as unexpected. This a…

A Just and Honourable Commerce”

The article examines how abolitionists c…

Ransoming Practices and “Barbary Coast” Slavery
The shipwreck and ransom of the officers and crew of two Liverpool slave ships (the Anna and the Solicitor General ) on the “Barbary Coast”[2][1] of Morocco in the last two decades of the eighteenth century took place in a context of growing metropolitan debate on the moral and legal
Commercial Agriculture, the Slave Trade & Slavery in Atlantic Africa
Re-envisages what we know about African political economies through its examination of one of the key questions in colonial and African history, that of commercial agriculture and its relationship to slavery. This book considers commercial agriculture in Africa in relation to the trans-Atlantic slave trade and the institution of slavery within Africa itself, from the beginnings of European maritime trade in the fifteenth century to theearly stage…
Reconstructing the Life Histories of Liberated Africans
This article draws attention to the scope and significance of the Registers of Liberated Africans, which were recently retraced in the Public Archives of Sierra Leone after a period of neglect. These registers, spanning the period between 1808 and 1819, provide details of the names and physical characteristics of the first groups of “recaptives” released at Freetown by royal naval patrols in the immediate aftermath of British abolition of the sla…

Irving built a successful career in the slave trade of eighteenth-century Liverpool, first as a ship s surgeon and then as a captain. Remarkably he was himself enslaved when his ship was wrecked off the coast of Morocco and he was captured by people described as wild Arabs and savages…
