Slavery in the New World by John Hawkins

John Hawkins headed back to the New World on his second slave trading mission. This time Queen Elizabeth herself actually got in on the action by contributing one of her ships. After taking slaves in Africa, Hawkins again headed to South America. The local authorities and those Spanish colonies were more reluctant to buy the slaves. But as Hawkins suspected, the demand for slave labor was so great that he was able to sell the slaves anyway.
