Kennee-Voo: Or The Sacking Of Allaroonah, An Incident Of The African Slave Trade is a historical novel written by Thomas Greenhalgh and published in 1856. The story is set in the 18th century and follows the journey of a group of European traders who venture into the African continent to participate in the slave trade. The main character, Captain George, is a ruthless and ambitious trader who aims to make a fortune by exploiting the local people and their resources.The story takes a dramatic turn when the traders encounter a tribe called the Allaroonah, who refuse to be enslaved and resist the traders' attempts to capture them. The Allaroonah tribe is led by a brave and intelligent queen named Kennee-Voo, who uses her knowledge of the land and her people to outsmart the traders and protect her tribe from slavery.As the conflict between the traders and the Allaroonah tribe escalates, the story becomes a gripping tale of survival, betrayal, and redemption. The novel offers a vivid portrayal of the brutality and inhumanity of the African slave trade, as well as the resilience and courage of the African people who fought against it.Overall, Kennee-Voo: Or The Sacking Of Allaroonah, An Incident Of The African Slave Trade is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that sheds light on a dark chapter in human history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
