Moving between Britain and Jamaica The bonds of family reconstructs
the world of commerce, consumption and cultivation sustained
through an extended engagement with the business of slavery.
Transatlantic slavery was both shaping of and shaped by the dynamic
networks of family that established Britain's Caribbean empire.
Tracing the activities of a single extended family - the Hibberts -
this book explores how slavery impacted on the social, cultural,
economic and political landscape of Britain. It is a history of
trade, colonisation, enrichment and the tangled web of relations
that gave meaning to the transatlantic world. The Hibberts's
trans-generational story imbricates the personal and the political,
the private and the public, the local and the global. It is both
the intimate narrative of a family and an analytical frame through
which to explore Britain's history and legacies of slavery. -- .
