Inhoud:

The successful 1776 revolt against British rule in North America has been hailed almost universally as a great step forward for humanity. The author show that in the prelude to 1776, the abolition of slavery seemed all but inevitable in London, delighting Africans as much as it outraged slaveholders, and sparking the colonial revolt.
