Slavery throughout world history E-BOOK

Slavery existed from the earliest societies and played a leading role in world history. For a long time, slavery was portrayed in history books as a fringe phenomenon.

Currently, slavery is receiving a lot of attention and it is rightly being brought out of oblivion. Those who know the history can thereby avoid repeating the same mistakes in the future. The book 'Slavery Throughout World History' focuses on an overall overview of the phenomenon of slavery in history and it delves deeper into motivations of both proponents of slavery and abolitionists. The actions of people according to sacred scriptures, have arguably been important to the course of history. England took the lead in abolishing slavery worldwide, having struggled internally to enshrine the abolition of the slave trade in law in 1807. The exodus from slavery is described in detail. Much attention is also paid to contemporary slavery and solutions are provided to combat it.

'People who, like me, grew up in a society where institutional slavery was
notorious and reprehensible, the scales will fall from their eyes while reading.
A real pageturner!'
