About the authors
Theodore Canot
1804–1860
A sailor, trader, and memoirist whose life moved through the brutal world of the 19th-century Atlantic slave trade, leaving behind one of its most vivid firsthand accounts. His story is troubling, historically important, and impossible to read without confronting the violence of the era.
