This 2000 study examines the circulation within England of the people and ideas of the black Abolitionist campaign. Fisch follows the discourse of American abolitionism as it circulated within England and was re-shaped by domestic Victorian debates about popular culture, the worker versus the slave, popular education, and working class self-improvement.
