| Abstract
|
:
|
"Of the hundreds of logbooks and journals I have examined, this is the most valuable for the slave trade in western Africa ... [Mouser's] exhaustive background research and editing are exemplary."--George BrooksCaptain Samuel Gamble's log contains the record of a slaving venture to Africa and Jamaica that nearly failed. It is one of the best firsthand narratives of the slave trade to survive. Bruce Mouser's faithfully transcribed and carefully annotated edition of Gamble's log provides a haunting.
