'The History Of The Rise, Progress, And Accomplishment Of The Abolition Of The African Slave Trade By The British Parliament' is a two-volume book written by Thomas Clarkson. The book provides a detailed and comprehensive account of the efforts to abolish the transatlantic slave trade in Britain. Volume II of the book focuses on the period from 1792 to 1807, during which the British anti-slavery movement gained momentum and ultimately succeeded in convincing Parliament to pass the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act in 1807. The act made it illegal to transport enslaved Africans across the Atlantic and marked a major milestone in the fight against slavery. 'The History of the Rise, Progress, and Accomplishment of the Abolition of the African Slave Trade by the British Parliament' is a key work in the history of the abolitionist movement and a testament to the power of activism and advocacy in the pursuit of justice.
