ISBN: 9780195382945 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

The Black Urban Atlantic in the Age of the Slave Trade
ISBN: 9780812223767 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the era of the Atlantic slave trade, vibrant port cities became home to thousands of Africans in transit. Free and enslaved blacks alike crafted the necessary materials to support transoceanic commerce and labored as stevedores, carters, sex workers, and boarding-house keepers. Even though Africans continued to be exchanged as chattel, urban frontiers allowed a number of enslaved blacks to negotiate the right to hire out their own time, often greatly enhancing their autonomy within the Atlantic commercial system.
