Published in 1840, the work explores the legal, social, and cultural dimensions of slavery, documenting how British laws often upheld or ignored the existence of bondage despite official claims of abolition. Drawing from court cases, legal codes, and personal observations, Adam exposes the contradictions in colonial policy and advocates for genuine reform. His work stands as an early and powerful condemnation of institutionalized injustice and a call for the ethical treatment and emancipation of enslaved people.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBook details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e William Adam\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback \u0026amp; Hardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 302\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gyan Books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1840\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs The Law And Custom of Slavery In British India available in paperback or hardcover?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes – \u003cem\u003eThe Law And Custom of Slavery In British India\u003c\/em\u003e is available here in Paperback and Hardcover; pick the one you want from the options above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat language is this edition in?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edition is in English.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho wrote The Law And Custom of Slavery In British India?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Law And Custom of Slavery In British India is written by William Adam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow fast does Bookston ship?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShipping is free on every order, with no minimum.
