[C] Olaudah Equiano, The Interesting Narrative of the Life of O. Equiano, or G. Vassa the Africa Written by Himself, 6th edition (1793)

Slave narratives like Equiano’s can tell us about a slave’s life in Africa, and their experiences in America or Europe. In some ways, we can see such a source as similar to a travel narrative, yet written from the perspective of the ‘Other’.
