A Must-read Dark Chapter of American History
Reviewed: 05-31-21
In this detailed and well-told account, Dr Harris tells stories never heard before of the illicit slave trade being run out of New York, Baltimore and other US seaports. The reality of the slave trade as it went on unchecked is gruesome, far-reaching and startling in its magnitude. In this book, the smaller stories come together to create a much bigger picture for all of us of the massive extent of slaving operations.
