Nov 14 Greg O’Malley: “To El Dorado via Slave Trade: British Commercial Imperialism in Spanish America & the Logic of Human Commodification, 1660-1713”

Gregory E. O’Malley is currently finishing his first book, Final Passages: The Intercolonial Slave Trade of British America, 1619-1807.  It examines a complex network for distributing enslaved Africans throughout North America and the Caribbean after their survival of the infamous (and much more thoroughly studied) Middle Passage across the Atlantic.
