When the abolition movement faltered in Parliament,
British women and children came to its rescue. They launched
a boycott, refusing to buy or consume sugar.

The file on the abolition of slavery has been rewritten. It's terrific just because the men and women who helped to abolish slavery were an amazing group of friends. The file has become one part of the ebook called 12 Gifts from Great Britain. You can read the ebook by paying a mere 75 pence (pound sterling) at Kindle UK or .99 cents at Kindle USA.

Excellent on Clarkson and the Friends, unaware of the Middletons, and underestimating Wilberforce, Hochschild does not understand the source of the abolitionists' determination to end the slave trade, but his book is gripping.
