The Atlantic Slave Trade from West Central Africa, 1780-1867 traces
the inland origins of slaves leaving West Central Africa at the
peak period of the transatlantic slave trade. Drawing on archival
sources from Angola, Brazil, England, and Portugal, Daniel B.
Domingues da Silva explores not only the origins of the slaves
forced into the trade but also the commodities for which they were
exchanged and their methods of enslavement. Further, the book
examines the evolution of the trade over time, its organization,
the demographic profile of the population transported, the
enslavers' motivations to participate in this activity, and the
Africans' experience of enslavement and transportation across the
Atlantic. Domingues da Silva also offers a detailed 'geography of
enslavement', including information on the homelands of the
enslaved Africans and their destination in the Americas.
