There has been nothing like Atlantic slavery. Its scope & the ways in which it has shaped the modern world are so far-reaching as to make it ungraspable. By examining the lives of three individuals caught up in the enterprise of human enslavement. James Walvin offers a new & an original interpretation of the barbaric world of slavery & of the historic end to the slave trade in April 1807. John Newton (1725-1807) author of ' Amazing Grace' was a slave captain who marshalled his human cargoes with a brutality that he looked back on with shame & contrition.
