Opis

This is the first edition of the Memoirs of Giambattista Scala, who, from 1852 to 1859, was a pioneer in the 'legitimate' trade which was replacing the Atlantic slave trade. Scala witnessed the dying years of the slave traffic and the growth of an export trade from West Africa to Europe, notably in palm products. From 1855 he also served as Sardinian Consul and observed the growth of British influence within Lagos and the surrounding parts of southern Yorubaland. Originally published in 1862, these Memoirs provide an interesting account of life among the Yoruba and of the community of traders and missionaries who settled in Lagos.
