9780230605923. New condition. Hard cover. Language: English. Pages: 284. Glued binding. Cloth over boards. With dust jacket. 284 p. For thousands of years, slavery went unchallenged in principle.

Greatest Emancipation tells this amazing story, focusing on Haiti, the British Caribbean, the United States, Cuba and Brazil, which accounted for the vast majority of slaves in the west. Jim Powell offers some surprising insights and shows that while the abolition of slavery was essential to any free society, it wasn't the sole determing factor, since some societies that abolished slavery later embraced dictatorships.
