The blood red flag : an investigation into Qasimi piracy
1797
-1820
"During the years 1797-1820 the Qasimi Arabs or Qawasim, inhabitants of the present day United Arab Emirates, acquired an enduring reputation as ruthless pirates. Some of their victims flew the British flag, and thus their actions were to provide the initial stimulus and justification for 150 years of British involvement in the Gulf. Recently, however, it has been doubted whether the Qawasim were in fact pirates. In a scholarly but accessible account founded on contemporary sources, illustrated with testimonies of eye-witnesses and participants, this book sets out to decide this controversial question. By making use of valuable and hitherto untapped archival material, Charles Davies strongly evokes a flavour of life in the Gulf in this turbulent and formative period in the Gulf's history. This book represents the first in-depth investigation into this controversial subject. It is based on original research and helps to explain why the Gulf is as it is today."--Provided by the publisher.

An African's life : the life and times of Olaudah Equiano, 1745-
1797
/James Walvin.
A biography of Olaudah Equiano (1745-1797), known as Gustavus Vassa for much of his life. Enslaved at the age of about eleven, Equiano learned to read and write and converted to Christianity, eventually buying his freedom in 1766. Thereafter, much of his life was spent in London and at sea on British ships. He was an early campaigner against the slave trade, was employed by the British Government as an agent in their efforts to ship the black poor from London to Sierra Leone and was a leading member of the Sons of Africa, a campaigning group of educated black Londoners. Frequently called on as a spokesman for the black community, Equiano became a public figure in his own lifetime, publishing his autobiography, The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, in 1789 which became one of the first examples of published writing by an African writer to be widely read.
