This counts among the most objective. It is very well researched and covers many areas untouched by other writers who seem to ignore that slavery was present in Africa virtually forever. By the 19th century, after the Atlantic trade ended, it had become institutionalized. He also does a good job of presenting the different roles slaves had from slave wives and concubines, to plantation workers, tax collectors, and human sacrifice,, and the ways slaves were acquired, for example, slave raids, wars, and sold by family members. Review: covers much that is missing elseware - Slavery that existed in Africa was timeless. Slaves were exported to the north across the Sahara, and east thru the ports on the Indian Ocean for over a thousand years before the Portuguese showed up looking for gold. African slavery is an enormous subject, with many facets covering different times and places. Sometimes slaves could have a life, have a family, and prosper. Other times it could be the worst form of exploitation imaginable. And there were the ones that were sold to ships sailing for Brazil, the Caribbean, America, Asia minor, India, and the far east. There must be more than a hundred million descendants of slaves living in the western hemisphere today. But what became of all those that were sent east? There aren't any populations of black people in Asia today, what is that story? ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,216,279 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #340 in Slavery & Emancipation History #2,672 in Discrimination & Racism #8,808 in Social Sciences (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (50) | | Dimensions | 6 x 0.55 x 9 inches | | ISBN-10 | 0521171881 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0521171885 | | Item Weight | 11.5 ounces | | Language | English | | Part of series | New Approaches to African History | | Print length | 240 pages | | Publication date | June 2, 2014 | | Publisher | Cambridge University Press | ## Images ![Slavery and Slaving in African History (New Approaches to African History, Series Number 8) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71nrmgcGatL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best book on slavery in Africa *by N***B on December 28, 2022* I have read dozens of books on slavery and the slave trades. This counts among the most objective. It is very well researched and covers many areas untouched by other writers who seem to ignore that slavery was present in Africa virtually forever. By the 19th century, after the Atlantic trade ended, it had become institutionalized. He also does a good job of presenting the different roles slaves had from slave wives and concubines, to plantation workers, tax collectors, and human sacrifice,, and the ways slaves were acquired, for example, slave raids, wars, and sold by family members. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ covers much that is missing elseware *by J***N on September 8, 2019* Slavery that existed in Africa was timeless. Slaves were exported to the north across the Sahara, and east thru the ports on the Indian Ocean for over a thousand years before the Portuguese showed up looking for gold. African slavery is an enormous subject, with many facets covering different times and places. Sometimes slaves could have a life, have a family, and prosper. Other times it could be the worst form of exploitation imaginable. And there were the ones that were sold to ships sailing for Brazil, the Caribbean, America, Asia minor, India, and the far east. There must be more than a hundred million descendants of slaves living in the western hemisphere today. But what became of all those that were sent east? There aren't any populations of black people in Asia today, what is that story? ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A successful textbook *by B***N on April 12, 2022* Anyone who has read "A Fistful Of Shells" mostly does not need to read this book. The additional information was about East Africa and the fate of slavery after the European conquest of Africa. There is also anthropological information about the relation of slavery and kinship in state and less state environments. The writing is very, very dry. ## Frequently Bought Together - Slavery and Slaving in African History (New Approaches to African History, Series Number 8) - Slavery: A World History - The Forgotten Slave Trade: The White European Slaves of Islam --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/186393951-slavery-and-slaving-in-african-history-new-approaches-to-african](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/186393951-slavery-and-slaving-in-african-history-new-approaches-to-african) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
