James Oglethorpe, Father of Georgia. A Founder’s Journey from Slave Trader to Abolitionist, Hardback/James F. Brooks

Uncovers how James Oglethorpe’s philosophical and moral evolution from slave trader to abolitionist was propelled by his relationships with two formerly enslaved men. His ‘friendships’ with Ayuba Suleiman Diallo and Olaudah Equiano are little-known examples of interracial antislavery activism that breathed life into the abolitionist movement.
