Omschrijving

The Redemption of Freetown is a historical novel written by Charles Monroe Sheldon and published in 1898. The story is set in Sierra Leone, West Africa, in the late 18th century, during the time of the transatlantic slave trade. The novel follows the lives of several characters, including a group of freed slaves who have settled in Freetown, a British colony established for liberated slaves.The main character, John Brown, is a young American missionary who has come to Freetown to help the freed slaves build a new life for themselves. He quickly becomes involved in the struggles of the community, which is beset by poverty, disease, and conflict with the neighboring tribes.As the story unfolds, John Brown and his African allies work to overcome the obstacles facing Freetown, including the corrupt British officials who control the colony, the slave traders who still operate in the region, and the internal divisions that threaten to tear the community apart.The Redemption of Freetown is a powerful and moving novel that explores themes of freedom, justice, and redemption. It is a vivid portrayal of a little-known chapter in African history and a testament to the resilience and courage of those who fought against slavery and oppression.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
