In this book, we will analyze John Newton's work, "Thoughts Upon the African Slave Trade" and compare it to works with similar themes from a similar time period.  Newton's work was written in 1787 and contains his personal thoughts and experiences with the African Slave Trade.

John Newton had unique life experiences, which gave him rare insight into the African Slave Trade.  His proposed views on African slaves and free Europeans offers an interesting perspective which is far ahead of his time.  Newton's views are in stark contrast to most works of his time period.
