![A Respectable Trade [Historical Novels] - Picture 1 of 1](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/7yIAAOSwMOJf~t1v/s-l500.jpg)
This book is hard to read from the standpoint of content. Though slaves have been captured, sold and used since ancient times all over this planet, this more recent historical novel brings the idea closer to home. Well written, this is a clear view of daily life in an era we as humans may prefer to forget.

Philippa Gregory is an outstanding writer. I find her books both entertaining and informative. This book about the triangle trade was very good. A nice easy read. I have read most of Gregory's books. Anyone interested in history would find them excellent.
A wonderful story of the slave trade in England. Phillippa Gregory at her best mingling a powerful love story with descriptive account of the terrible slave trade England began. One of her best. I bought this book to give to a friend as a gift as I can't part with my copy. Highly recommend this powerful account of English history and the beginning of William Willberforce's campaign to ban slavery.
It is a very interesting account of slavery during that time period. I like the author because in the book she backs up the story with facts.
Order book to complete a series. Have not read yet. Have read several othger titles by this author and have liked them all.
