Slavery and Anti-Slavery in Northamptonshire 

An overview
In 18th and 19th Century Northamptonshire there were those who benefited from trans-Atlantic slavery but also others who actively opposed it. This talk looks at the ways in which national responses to slavery were reflected in our own county.
