''Slavery in the Island of Cuba: With Remarks on the Statements of the British Press Relative to the Slave Trade'' is a non-fiction book written by Mariano Torrente. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the slave trade in Cuba during the 19th century, with a particular focus on the role of the British press in shaping public opinion on the issue. The author offers a detailed account of the conditions under which slaves lived and worked in Cuba, highlighting the brutality and inhumanity of the system. He also challenges the portrayal of the British press as a champion of abolitionism, arguing that their coverage of the slave trade was often sensationalist and inaccurate. Overall, ''Slavery in the Island of Cuba'' is a valuable historical document that sheds light on a dark chapter in Cuba’s past and provides insight into the complex dynamics of the transatlantic slave trade.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
