Very rare pamphlet issued immediately on the heals of William Wilberforce's delivery of his Evidences, exposing the horrors of the slave trade before parliament. The result of Fox's call for a boycott was well-received and the decrease in the consumption of West Indian sugar and rum caused industry-wide, significant financial losses. 

The tract was influential enough to be issued in Philadelphia shortly thereafter, where it also had a significant effect. 

Scarce in the trade.
