The development of the English trade in black African slaves as a response to the changing economy in the Southeastern American Colonies is explored in the context of the conditions of the Triangular Trade and the management and treatment of slaves on Southern Plantations. The rise of the Abolitionist Movement nationally and the path to Emancipation is also examined in relation to the revolutionary developments in the Port Royal Sound area in the early 1860’s.
