Zachary Macaulay 1768-1838
The first biography of Zachary Macaulay - the ‘engineer’ of the anti-slavery movement in Britain. He was never an orator or organiser of meetings but through careful research and publication of the facts, providing the vital resources for the parliamentary and public campaign.
Zachary Macaulay
This study is an attempt to look behind the scenes at the self-effacing man, Zachary Macaulay one far less known than Wilberforce or his famous son, Thomas Babington Macaulay and to correct the imbalance of the record. It is an endeavour to assess in some measure Zachary Macaulays enormous contribution to the abolition of both the slave trade and of slavery itself in the British Dominions. More than all, as Macaulay himself would have wished, we seek to give God the glory for raising up such a man at so critical a juncture of British national history.
Macaulay and Son
" ... Explores the emothional, intellectual, and political roots of Zachary Macaulay, the leading abolitionalist, and his son Thomas's visions of race, nation and empire. The story moves from late eighteenth-century Scotland to the plantations of Jamaica, from the new colony of Sierra Leone to India, from Leeds and Edinburgh to London. The Macaulay family with its intense dynamics and complex relationships provides one thread while the politics of abolition, of reform, of empire and of history writing is another. The contrasting moments of evangelical humanitarianism and liberal imperialism are seen through the writings and careers of father and son."--P [2] of cover.
