Back to our stories : new workers, new
sugar
.
Summary:
Sugar
has left a bloody trail through human
history
. Cane--not cotton or tobacco--drove the bloody Atlantic slave
trade
and took the lives of countless Africans who toiled on vast
sugar
plantations under cruel overseers. And yet the very popularity of
sugar
gave abolitionists in England the one tool that could finally end the slave
trade
. This book traces the
history
of
sugar
from its origins in New Guinea around 7000 B.C. to its use in the 21st century to produce ethanol.

009-013.
