Six Months������� Service In The African Blockade: From April To October, 1848, In Command Of H.M.S. Bonetta is a book written by Frederick Edwyn Forbes in 1849. The book is a personal account of Forbes' experiences serving in the African Blockade as the commander of the H.M.S. Bonetta. The African Blockade was a naval operation aimed at stopping the illegal slave trade in Africa. Forbes describes the challenges he faced during his six months of service, including navigating treacherous waters and dealing with hostile locals. He also provides insight into the daily life of a naval officer during this time period, including the routines and duties of the crew. The book is an important historical document as it sheds light on the British Navy's role in the fight against the slave trade in Africa. It also offers a unique perspective on the experiences of naval officers during this time period. The book is recommended for anyone interested in naval history, the abolition of slavery, or the history of Africa.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
