The Transatlantic Trade in Africans has no equal in the annals of modern history in terms of the scope and depth of suffering experienced by its victims. Hilary Beckles and Verene Shepherd, two of the Caribbean's most distinguished historians, make extensive use of research by scholars from Europe, Africa and the Americas to describe the trade and analyse its impact on African, European and Caribbean societies.
