Summary:
The first comprehensive study of the thousands of Britons captured and enslaved in North Africa in the early modern period, charting the course of victims' lives from capture to liberation, death, or, escape. The study places the British story within the context of Mediterranean slavery, which saw Moors and Christians as both captors and captives.
