1714Best.-Nr. 21230London 1714. Broadsheet. 1p. plus printed docket title on verso. Disbound. Small folio. Early folds and early stab holes in left margin. Mild foxing. An early British petitionary leaflet calling for greater enforcement of customs laws for imported goods. The author charges that most consignments of foreign goods are now being made to "Naturalized Foreigners and Unfreemen" who are not under the same obligations as Freemen who state in their oath "not to Colour of Cover the Goods of Aliens." If "no Remedey be given" it is argued "all Persons will be discouraged from taking their Freedoms and few will be left of Substance to perform the necessary Service in the Government of London."

1837Best.-Nr. ABC_47982London 1837. Folio 32 x 20.5 cm. William Clowes 1837-1845; T. R. Harrison 1848-1872. Later stiff blue paper wrappers with white title-label on the front cover blue sprinkled edges. Ad. 11 in beige paper wrappers. With several tables of data. 14 volumes. Rare collection of 14 volumes containing transcriptions of British diplomatic correspondence with other countries relating to the slave trade in the 19th century printed for the British government. Although slavery in the British Empire was abolished in 1807 enslaved people in the colonies were not freed until 1838. In the present volumes which mostly date from 1837-1846 directly after slavery was abolished in most British colonies the British government urges other countries to help put a halt to the now illegal slave trade. The present collection contains the correspondence between Britain and numerous countries in Europe the Americas and North Africa especially France Spain the United States and Austria. The letters describe the ships carrying enslaved people in detail also mentioning their ports of call so they could be more easily found and stopped. Of particular interest are the transcriptions of slave trade acts from various countries as well as the treaties between France and chiefs in African colonies which are difficult to find in print anywhere else.The letters reveal the profound change in attitude towards slavery in the middle of the 19th century. The tone of the correspondence with countries that were quick in abolishing slavery like Denmark is very different than that of the countries that were much slower like the Netherlands and various countries in Latin America. However the letters especially make clear how difficult it must have been to find and stop the ships that were illegally carrying enslaved people. The owners of the vessels often hid their illegal practices behind obscure transactions and renamings which made finding them arduous and sometimes dangerous. It was the task of British commissioners and naval officers to try to uncover the network behind the Atlantic slave traders and bring them to justice. By collaborating with other countries the courts succeeded in the condemnation of over 600 vessels engaged in the slave trade and the liberation of nearly 80000 enslaved people.Ad 11 with blue library stamp on the title-page "Bibliothèque du palais de la paix". All volumes in good to very good condition some very slight browning and foxing some marginal notes in most volumes. unknown
