The book delves into the influence of slavery and the Atlantic trade on the early stages of British industrialization. Kenneth Morgan explores five critical areas of historical debate, including the profitability of the slave trade, its role in capital accumulation, the dynamics of exports and transatlantic markets, the function of business institutions, and the impact on British port growth.
