The Slave Trade of East Africa is a historical book written by Edward Moss Hutchinson in 1874. The book is a detailed account of the slave trade that took place in East Africa during the 19th century. Hutchinson was a British colonial administrator who spent several years in East Africa, and his book is based on his personal experiences and observations.The book provides a comprehensive overview of the slave trade in East Africa, including the methods used to capture slaves, the conditions in which they were kept, and the routes used to transport them. Hutchinson also discusses the economic, social, and political factors that contributed to the growth of the slave trade in the region.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of the slave trade. The first chapter provides an introduction to the history of the slave trade in East Africa, while the subsequent chapters delve into topics such as the capture of slaves, the treatment of slaves, and the role of European traders in the slave trade.Throughout the book, Hutchinson provides vivid descriptions of the conditions in which slaves were kept, including their cramped quarters, poor hygiene, and lack of basic necessities. He also describes the brutal treatment that slaves often endured at the hands of their captors, including beatings, torture, and sexual abuse.Despite the grim subject matter, The Slave Trade of East Africa is an important historical document that sheds light on a dark period in the history of the region. Hutchinson's detailed and insightful account of the slave trade provides valuable insights into the economic, social, and political factors that contributed to its growth, and serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of slavery in East Africa.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
