Gaja Milani _aja_ilani — This book traces the beginnings of the use of ships in the transportation of slaves to its inevitable end. The book starts by giving some short stories of what life was like aboard ship. The next couple of chapters gives a detailed desciption of the African contient and the tribes that existed in the main slave trading ports. These chapters are quite difficult to get through and will prove to of little interest to the average reader. The book does do an admirable job in describing how the African tribes feuding with each other and looking for trade goods were more than willing to enslave their own kind. The author goes into great detail on the life aboard these ships. He tells of the absolute rule of the Captain and the abominable conditions that existed aboard ship for both sailor and captive. The captives were crammed into small spaces with little or no sanitary conditions. They would be beaten, sometimes killed, and thrown overboard. Families were separated with no effort to keep them together. There was an incredible amount of money to be earned in the slave trade. Most of the money was split between the Captain of the ship and the person who backed the venture. The book also explores why the slave trade came to an end, and the people who continually pressured the captains and slave traders to discontinue this practice. These people took their cause to the public by distributing copies of a slave ship detailing the horrific conditions on the ship. There is some very good information in this book and should be of interest to anyone who likes history.
