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. 410 0$aBlack Atlantic. 606 $aEnslaved persons$vBiography 606 $aSlavery$xHistory$y18th century 615 0$aEnslaved persons 615 0$aSlavery$xHistory 676 $a305.5/67/092 676 $aB 700 $aWalvin$b James$0218359 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817318403321 996 $aAn African's life$93949450 997 $aUNINA
