- This single-authored 120,000-word, 9-chapter (including Introduction and Conclusion) monograph is the culmination of nearly six years work. Developed from PhD research, the book spans over 200 years of history, mapping the changing public memory of transatlantic slavery in Europe’s largest slave-trading port city from the beginning of the 19th century to the 2010s. Original and rigorous research was undertaken for each chapter including the analysis of 50 written histories, over 100 guidebooks, national and local newspapers, newsletters and magazines, original archival material, qualitative interviews, participant observation, architecture, museums, the built environment, material culture, ritual and ceremony.
