Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes published as *Adventures of an African Slaver,* this replica of the 1854 first edition restores its original title. All of its unique power remains intact. Adapted from the journals, memoranda, and conversations of French-Italian seafarer and notorious slaver CAPTAIN THEODORE CANOT (1804-1860), this vivid and unexaggerated depiction of the slave trade between Africa and the New World is prized as a firsthand account of every aspect of the industry, from how slaves are purchased to the first reactions of newly arrived slaves to the New World and beyond. Explicit and shocking, this volume is also a startling illustration of the racist attitudes of its day, from Canot's justifications for the slave trade to the introduction by American journalist BRANTZ MAYER (1809-1879), who compiled Canot's material for publication and defended his subject's work. This is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of American slavery.

Book excerpt: The amazing, shocking, and true autobiography of a trans-Atlantic slave trader who plied the slave trade between Africa and Cuba for twenty years from 1820 to 1840. Dealing forthrightly with all aspects of this trade in humans, the book starts with a small biographical background before moving in to the core of his story, which can be divided into five major sections: how Africans were captured, how they were transported, how they were "unloaded" at their destination, how the European powers attempted to halt the trade, and finally, the role of the Arab Muslim slavers in the awful business. Canot's book contains many revelations which have traditionally been obscured in other accounts of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, namely that the Africans had in face been enslaved by their own people first and then just sold on to the foreign slavers, that the slave traders faced fierce physical attempts by the British, the French, and other European powers to halt the inhuman trade, and that the Arab Muslim slavers in Africa were, along with the Africans themselves, the main drivers of the capture and availability of Africans for the slave markets in both the East and West. It is a breath-taking book that has lost none of its emotional power since its first publication. Completely reset and contains all the original illustrations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "...There was very little comfort on board La Estrella, after the suppression of this revolt. We lived with a pent-up volcano beneath us ..."The subject of the book "Captain Canot; or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver" is at once interesting and repulsive. It is interesting because it is connected with one of the great problems of early US history - because it throws new light upon the home-life, character, habits, and capacities for improvement of an enslaved people; and repulsive, because it vigorously and truthfully unveils the mysteries of a traffic which the civilization of the world had denounced as a crime, and which the humanity mourns as an outrage. Although, on the whole, Captain Canot modifies somewhat the horrors associated with the Slave Trade, he gives us great insight into its operations and the characters of those who are engaged in it. Strong indeed must have been the lust of gold, and extreme the moral debasement that could tempt men to embark in such a career when seen in the light of this volume. Brantz Mayer (1809 - 1879) was a famous American author and edited for a short time the Baltimore American newspaper. In 1855, he published his book "Captain Canot; or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver" which is the true story of the slave trader Theodore Canot.

This book was released on 2019-09-06 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An authentic, dramatic, shocking, and adventure-packed biography of an Italian-born slave trader who plied the Africa to Cuba slave trade from 1820 to 1840. This book has immense value not only for its vivid descriptions of the inhumanity of the slave trade, but also for its detailed explanations of how the African slave trade worked in Africa. Specifically, this work reveals that slavery was a long-standing African tradition practiced long before the Europeans arrived, and that it was Africans and Muslim-slave traders in particular who provided all the slaves eventually transported to the New World. It is clear from all the "transactions" and "shipments" which Canot describes, that without the active assistance of Africans and Muslim slave traders, there would never have been a Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade--and that these two groups bear equal, if not greater blame for the crime of slavery. As Canot describes, the African slave traders regularly captured and traded their own people as slaves, with tribesmen selling each other, and their own wives, sisters, daughters and sons to slave traders for trifles such as bottles of rum or a handful of beads. Some African chiefs grew so rich from the slave trade, Canot reveals, that when he finally decided to halt his "business," the local Africans were so angry that they burned down his property in revenge for his refusal to buy any more slaves from them. In addition, Canot describes precisely how slaves were captured, and how they were transported across the Atlantic. His many adventures include how he dealt with crew mutinies and slave rebellions, his clashes with the anti-slavery British and French navies, his capture and imprisonment by the French, his escape from captivity, and much more. First published in English in 1854, this edition has been completely reset, and contains all the original text and illustrations.
