"A brilliant rendition of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Database. This atlas is essential to the study of chattel slavery. No student of slavery should be without it."--Ira Berlin, University of Maryland "These magnificent maps--all 189--document almost every conceivable aspect of one of the world's worst crimes. An epic and gruesome drama receives a fitting representation. A superb contribution to scholarship."--Philip D. Morgan, Johns Hopkins University "This is a highly original work and represents a major contribution to historical analysis. There are no comparable works on this topic."--Stanley Engerman, University of Rochester "This is an important project that will add greatly to our understanding about the major, long-term patterns of trade between Africa and the Americas, help to map the African Diaspora, and place the transatlantic slave trade in larger world history context."--Steve Behrendt, Victoria University of Wellington "This is a major work of enormous consequence, without parallel in the literature, deeply researched, highly original, and of immeasurable value."--Harm J. de Blij, Michigan State University, "Sophisticated and erudite, the maps and the introductions to them offer the best and most accessible interpretations on various aspects of the transatlantic slave trade. Full of insights and new findings, the strong analysis and evidence presented will create a permanent distinguished stamp on the book, confirming it as a groundbreaking text for both beginners and advanced students."-Toyin Falola, University of Texas at Austin, ". . . a beautifully produced volume . . . The whole is topped and tailed by two excellent essays: a masterly introduction by David Brion Davis and a rousing afterword by David Blight. The end result of all this international, scholarly effort is a remarkable book which is not only a pleasure to have on one''s shelves, but a model of scholarly and publishing activity. . . . Here, and in their varied (and complex) work as individual scholars, Eltis and Richardson have revealed themselves to be among the most imaginative, influential and distinguished historians of their generation."-James Walvin, International Journal of Maritime History, "TheAtlasis the Rosetta Stone of slave historiography, making legible through maps and charts the mass of data that, at long last, allows us to grapple with and interpret the strange and intricate history of the slave trade in African human beings to the New World between 1501 and 1866. If there were Pulitzer Prizes for databases, this would win, hands down."-Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Harvard University, "This is a highly original work and represents a major contribution to historical analysis. There are no comparable works on this topic."�Stanley Engerman, University of Rochester, "The Atlas is the Rosetta Stone of slave historiography, making legible through maps and charts the mass of data that, at long last, allows us to grapple with and interpret the strange and intricate history of the slave trade in African human beings to the NewWorld between 1501 and 1866.If there were Pulitzer Prizes for databases, this would win, hands down."-Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Harvard University, "This marvelous book will change how people think of the slave trade. It deserves every accolade it is likely to get."-Nicolas van de Walle, Foreign Affairs, "One of the most ambitious books of this--or any other--publishing season: a fascinating, horrifying, beautifully put-together atlas of the transatlantic slave trade."-Very Short List, Winner of the 2011 James A. Rawley Prize in Atlantic history, as given by the American Historical Association., �This is a major work of enormous consequence, without parallel in the literature, deeply researched, highly original, and of immeasurable value.��Harm J. de Blij, Michigan State University, "One of the most ambitious books of this--or any other--publishing season: a fascinating, horrifying, beautifully put-together atlas of the transatlantic slave trade."--Very Short List, "A major landmark in the development of slave trade studies."�Ralph A.

[This book] is a human document as well as a rigorous accounting. It is filled with moving poems, photographs, letters and diary entries."--Dwight Garner, New York Times, "A monumental chronicle of this historical tragedy, one that records some 35,000 individual slaving voyages, roughly 80 percent of those made. . . .

This atlas also systematically links African ports to American ports and hinterland African states to the ports from which their slaves were exported: an important step and a reminder that a great deal of the slave trade began deep in Africa."-John Thornton, author of Africa and Africans in the Making of the Atlantic World, 1400-1800, "The Atlas of the Transatlantic Slave Tradeis a dramatic step forward in the cartographic representation of the slave trade, tracing the flow of captives in much greater detail and with more precision than ever before.

Synopsis
A extraordinary work, decades in the making: the first atlas to illustrate the entire scope of the transatlantic slave trade Winner of the Association of American Publishers' 2010 R.R. Hawkins Award and PROSE Award "A monumental chronicle of this historical tragedy."--Dwight Garner, New York Times Between 1501 and 1867, the transatlantic slave trade claimed an estimated 12.5 million Africans and involved almost every country with an Atlantic coastline. In this extraordinary book, two leading historians have created the first comprehensive, up-to-date atlas on this 350-year history of kidnapping and coercion. It features nearly 200 maps, especially created for the volume, that explore every detail of the African slave traffic to the New World. The atlas is based on an online database (www.slavevoyages.org) with records on nearly 35,000 slaving voyages--roughly 80 percent of all such voyages ever made. Using maps, David Eltis and David Richardson show which nations participated in the slave trade, where the ships involved were outfitted, where the captives boarded ship, and where they were landed in the Americas, as well as the experience of the transatlantic voyage and the geographic dimensions of the eventual abolition of the traffic. Accompanying the maps are illustrations and contemporary literary selections, including poems, letters, and diary entries, intended to enhance readers' understanding of the human story underlying the trade from its inception to its end. This groundbreaking work provides the fullest possible picture of the extent and inhumanity of one of the largest forced migrations in history., A monumental work, decades in the making: the first atlas to illustrate the entire scope of the transatlantic slave trade Between 1501 and 1867, the transatlantic slave trade claimed an estimated 12.5 million Africans and involved almost every country with an Atlantic coastline.
