Captives as Commodities: The Transatlantic Slave Trade

Part of Prentice Hall's Connection: Key Themes in World History series.

Written based on the author's annual course on slave trade, Captives as Commodities examines three key themes:  1) the African context surrounding the Atlantic slave trade,  2)  the history of the slave trade itself, and 3) the changing meaning of race and racism.  The author draws recent scholarship to provide students with an understanding of Atlantic slave trade.
