Sweet Water and Bitter : The Ships That Stopped the Slave Trade
By: Rees, Sian (Author).
CCV. Published: 04/02/2010. Audience Guide: General (US: Trade).
Paperback. Sourced from NZ.
Rees's story is certainly gripping - slavers used all sorts of ruses to evade capture, from running up a different flag (only certain countries had legal agreements with Britain) to simply throwing slaves overboard (early on, slave ships could be impounded only if the 'cargo' were actually on board) Sunday Times Sian Rees combines thorough research and strong storytelling in Sweet Water and Bitter'.
