Northamptonshire and the Abolition of Slavery: Key Figures, Movements, and Moments


Overview

In 1838, full emancipation swept across the British Empire. To mark the occasion, William Knibb stood before a vast congregation in Jamaica and declared: THE MONSTER IS DEAD. But did you know that several of the weapons used to slay the monster were made, or at least sharpened, in Northamptonshire?  This book follows those ideas, those movements, and those people, showing how a county far from the Caribbean plantations became part of the great struggle to end one of history's gravest injustices.
