About this recording

This is Volume 1 of 4 volumes. Some territories explored are Sierra Leone, Fernando Po, Calabar, and Prince Edward's Island. Standard clash of races and cultures is ever-present, but also always a disdainful attitude toward the workings of the British and European slave trade. It is a document to inform the English sovereign of the nature of its colonization in Africa. - Summary by Jim Locke
