Sources of the Nineteenth-Century Slave Trade: Two Comments

I. The Cameroons Highlands

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  22 January 2009

Extract

Professors Curtin and Vansina in a recent issue of this journal (V (1964), 2, pp. 185–208) have put us in their debt by synthesizing the available information on the sources of the nineteenth-century Atlantic slave trade. For the Cameroons Highlands, a source well represented in Koelle's Polyglotta Africana, we have some corrections to make and comments to add.
