Originally published in 1788, this harrowing narrative draws on Falconbridge's experience as a British surgeon aboard slave ships operating between West Africa and the Caribbean.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFalconbridge exposes the inhuman conditions endured by enslaved Africans during capture, transport, and sale. His vivid descriptions of overcrowded ships, brutal treatment, and the psychological and physical suffering of the captives stand as a searing indictment of a system built on greed and cruelty. The author's testimony played a key role in fueling the growing abolitionist movement in Britain and helped bring about widespread awareness of the horrors of the transatlantic trade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA landmark in humanitarian literature, \u003cem\u003eAn Account of the Slave Trade on the Coast of Africa\u003c\/em\u003e remains an essential document for understanding the realities of slavery, colonial exploitation, and the moral awakening that ultimately led to its abolition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.12 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 04, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53146494140723,"sku":"9781636523637","price":17.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/zTOiDq4skt9781636523637.webp?v=1773868137","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/an-account-of-the-slave-trade-on-the-coast-of-africa-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
