What reading level is A Short Review of the Slave Trade And Slavery With Considerations On the Benefi book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Had these been allowed to increase since that time at the rate of the slaves in the United States since 1790, they would now have amounted to three or four millions; or even if they had increased at the rate at which the Maroons, apart of their own body, have, when undisturbed, been increasing, they would now amount to two or three millions. But besides this original stock of 40, 000 slaves, there have been imported into and retained in Jamaica upwards of 800, 000 Africans. Had these 84, 000 sl...aves merely maintained theii; numbers, the slave population of Jamaica would be from two to three times as numerous as it is. I But had they gone on increasing at the rate of slaves in the United States ; qr evtn, at that of the Maroons in Jamaica itself, the population VQuld pow have been quite immense.
" But if we comprehend in our estimate, not only Ja- maica, but the whole of our Slave Colonies, and review the progress of population in them all since their first formation, how appalling would be the amount of human life, in fact of human iacr\fice, which they have cost us, and which they are still costing us !
