Thoughts On The Projected Abolition Of Negro Slavery

""Thoughts On The Projected Abolition Of Negro Slavery: In The West Indies"" is a book written by William Clowes and published in 1823. The book is a reflection on the proposed abolition of slavery in the West Indies and the potential impact it would have on the economy, society, and politics of the region. Clowes argues that the abolition of slavery would have disastrous consequences for the West Indies, including a decline in productivity, a loss of revenue, and a rise in social unrest. He also suggests that the slaves themselves may not be ready for freedom, and that a gradual emancipation process would be more appropriate. Throughout the book, Clowes draws on his experience as a plantation owner and his observations of the slave trade to support his arguments. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of slavery and its impact on colonial societies.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
