The Adventures of Thomas Pellow: Three and Twenty Years in Captivity Among the Moors by Thomas Pellow, Robert Brown (Introduction) 4.38 · Rating details · 13 ratings · 2 reviews In the summer of 1716, a Cornish cabin boy named Thomas Pellow was captured at sea by Barbary pirates and sold into human bondage to the despotic sultan of Morocco. This riveting memoir of a slave narrative is a story of pluck, and endurance in the face of barbaric splendour and suffering. A remarkable testament to the strength of the human spirit and to all those snatched from their homes and taken in chains to the great slave markets of North Africa. A bestseller in its day and a classic of slave literature. https://www.wob.com/en-gb/books/cra...vKcgYWVhhH81o0PR46xizOoi8ld4fWqRoCCvcQAvD_BwE please log in to view this image
I see Lobster Boy is harping back to the 18th and 19th century in some facile attempt to paint a rose tinted narrative about slavery whilst casually ignoring the fact that during that period the Navy was at the heart of empire building, enslaving about 200million in India alone. What a clueless fcking little englander he is It's the kind of rose tinted ****e they spouted about post-war Britain to vote Brexit. Now looking like complete and utter mugs the dumb arse fcking morons
Just what the country needs, a bunch of Woke losers running the country for less than five per cent of the population, levelling DOWN to the deviants. Lunatic democracy in action – that should never happen.
The Bank of England is part of the problem. Why are they covering themselves? You still have not got a clue. Brain Dead, proved by yourself.
