Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Plantations in the French Antilles (principally in Haiti) became major sugar producers in the 18th century, and France became a main distributor to other European countries. Stein provides a clear and coherent (if sometimes repetitious) explanation of the three-pronged trade; ships from France carried slaves from Africa to the Antilles, and then returned to Europe with sugar. The slaves, most of whom died of disease and overwork, were victims of the French sugar trade. Stein argues, however, that the French sugar policy, which typified the mercantilist regulation of the ancien regime , was successful and benefitted many. Primarily for academic and larger collections. Nancy C. Cridland, Indiana Univ. Libs., Bloomington
