Manage episode 353356900 series 2801375
Welcome to season four of Between the Reads! Our first show of the season highlights the work of author A.E. Rooks. We talk about The Black Joke, the most famous member of the British Royal Navy's anti-slavery squadron, and the complexities and politics behind putting an end to the slave trade (which is not to be confused with the end of slavery!).
