About the author

JC

Joseph Corry

Known for an early firsthand account of West Africa, this travel writer and trader left behind a vivid record of the Windward Coast in the years 1805 and 1806. His work captures both the commercial ambitions and the attitudes of Britain’s early nineteenth-century encounter with the region.
