Omschrijving

""The Force of Truth: An Authentic Narrative"" is a memoir written by Thomas Scott, a British sailor and former slave who became a prominent abolitionist in the 18th century. In the book, Scott tells his life story, beginning with his childhood in Africa and his capture by slave traders. He describes his experiences as a slave on various plantations in America and the West Indies, including the brutal treatment he received at the hands of his masters. Scott eventually managed to escape slavery and make his way to England, where he became involved in the anti-slavery movement. He worked closely with William Wilberforce and other abolitionists, giving speeches and writing articles to raise awareness about the horrors of the slave trade. In addition to his personal story, ""The Force of Truth"" also provides a vivid picture of the transatlantic slave trade and the conditions faced by enslaved people. Scott's account is notable for its unflinching honesty and its powerful condemnation of slavery as a moral evil. Overall, ""The Force of Truth"" is an important historical document that sheds light on the experiences of enslaved people and the efforts of abolitionists to end the practice of slavery. It is a compelling and inspiring read that offers a valuable perspective on a crucial period in world history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
