2White Slavery in the Barbary States
First published in 1853 by Charles Sumner, White
Slavery in the Barbary States outlines the
history of the centuries in which Moslems
enslaved Europeans and later, Americans and what
led to its halt.Sumner focuses on many specific
instances of Europeans and Americans captured and
sold at Moslem slave markets.The Barbary slave
trade refers to the slave markets that flourished
on the Barbary Coast of North Africa, which
included the Ottoman provinces of Algeria,
Tunisia and Tripolitania and the independent
sultanate of Morocco, between the 16th and middle
of the 18th century. The Ottoman provinces in
North Africa were nominally under Ottoman
suzerainty, but in reality they were mostly
autonomous. The North African slave markets were
part of the Arab slave trade.The Barbary Coast
European slaves were acquired by Barbary pirates
in slave raids on ships and by raids on coastal
towns from Italy to the Netherlands, as far north
as Iceland and east into the Mediterranean.The
Ottoman eastern Mediterranean was the scene of
intense piracy. As late as the 18th century,
piracy continued to be a consistent threat to
maritime traffic in the Aegean .For centuries,
large vessels on the Mediterranean relied on
galley slaves supplied by North African
and Ottoman slave traders.
