Six Months������� Service In The African Blockade: From April To October, 1848, In Command Of H.M.S. Bonetta is a book written by Frederick Edwyn Forbes and published in 1849. The book provides a detailed account of Forbes' experiences commanding the British naval vessel, H.M.S. Bonetta, during a six-month mission to enforce the African Blockade in 1848. The blockade was an effort by the British government to suppress the transatlantic slave trade, and Forbes' account provides a firsthand look at the challenges and successes of this mission. The book includes descriptions of encounters with slave ships, the capture of several vessels, and the treatment of slaves on board. It also includes observations on the geography, climate, and culture of West Africa. Overall, Six Months������� Service In The African Blockade is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the efforts to end the transatlantic slave trade in the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
