THE SLAVE’S CAUSE: A History of Abolition By Manisha Sinha Illustrated. 768 pp. Yale University Press is reviewed in today's New York Times. I have seen Sinha speak twice since she began writing this large work and each time she talked I heard whispers of "when is the book coming out." So, at least among academics, this has been long-anticipated.
The review by Ira Berlin, and eminent scholar of the history of slavery, is exceptionally positive.
