French Slave Trade Africa Clarkson Letters Guadeloupe Atlantic Indian Ocean

This pamphlet denounces the continued involvement of French ships and capital in the slave trade, and aims to rouse national indignation in France. It includes an extract from a pamphlet by Thomas Clarkson distributed among delegates at the Congress of Aix-la-Chapelle in 1818, describing the renewed French slave trade, and another extract from Clarkson's The Cries of Africa; letters detailing the arrival of slave ships in Guadeloupe taken from the abstract of African Institution reports, entitled 'Foreign Slave Trade' (1821); letters from a French slave trader which had been found on a ship in the Indian Ocean; and a report on continued slave trading off the coast of West Africa, written by the Governor of Sierra Leone, including a table of names of French slave ships.
