It will speak both to the ways in which slavery, conflict, and capitalism were intertwined, and to the ways in which established interests fought to maintain the status quo in the face of economic and moral imperatives—issues with great relevance to our contemporary moment.

The book will examine how merchants in Bristol worked alongside others within the trading community to uphold the system of plantation slavery and protect the trade in sugar from a series of compounding crises towards the end of the Eighteenth Century.

This week, I have approved not one, but TWO, sets of article proofs, and there should be a third on the way v. soon. This is unheard of for me. Also, they are three entirely different pieces with very different focuses (I like to make things difficult for myself). Time for gin!

Historical GIS users - help please! I have a rudimentary knowledge of GIS (QGIS) for basic mapmaking purposes, but I'm looking to delve further into it in order to build GIS into a web portal with selectable layers and links to historical documents... Any tips for where to begin?

@kejamieson_ Looks like it might be a contraction for a full name - I would guess Henry or Harry. Is this normal for your source?
