More than any single contemporary, Equiano speaks for the fate of millions of Africans in the era of the transatlantic slave trade. This study attempts to create a rounded portrait of the man behind the literary image, and to study Equiano in the context of Atlantic slavery.Black Atlantic.Enslaved personsBiographySlaveryHistory18th centuryEnslaved personsSlaveryHistory305.5/67/092BWalvin James218359MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817318403321An African's life3949450UNINA
