A fascinating look at the link between industrialized Europe, the demand for peanut oil, increased land in peanuts, and the increased use of slaves as labor. Plus France’s outlawing of slavery in its territories but also trying to keep the damels satisfied. Plus Protestant missionaries and Walter Taylor (a native of Sierra Leone educated by missionaries), a railroad, Lat Joor and Kajoor/Cayor, global economics, and yellow fever. It is truly fascinating and a great example of the wealth of sources in archives.
