- Freedom's Debtors: British Antislavery in Sierra Leone in the Age of Revolution (Yale UP, 2017; xii + 299 pages) makes a complex, sustained argument about the history of British antislavery, based on extensive archival research in the UK, Canada, the United States, as well as in the Sierra Leone archives. The book was the product of more than five years of research and writing, and makes an important and extended intervention in multiple fields of historical scholarship, including the histories of slavery and emancipation, the history of the British empire, and the history of precolonial West Africa.
