"""The Portuguese documents edited and translated here tell us much about the international and regional routes of the early Atlantic slave trade, its organization and the main actors involved (both as perpetrators and victims). This edition is, therefore, a valuable tool for teaching purposes at various educational levels."" - Filipa Ribeiro Da Silva, Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis, Amsterdam"
