29th Cong., 1st Sess.: SD377., 1846. 248pp, disbound, light fox. Very Good.
A detailed review of "the state of things on the coast of Africa," the activities of England in "checking the African slave trade," and the roadblocks to establishing a treaty with the U.S. in that regard. British board-and-search tactics, so reminiscent of the objectionable practice that helped bring on the War of 1812, were a major obstacle to such a treaty.
