Behind the scenes were legal manueverings and political ramifications: presidential aspirations in an election year; the South's slave-based economy; and international affairs. The ordeal of the Africans, however, penetrated the American consciousness of the race question as never before. It brought before the public this defining issue: Can one person be the property of another?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKaren Zeinert looks carefully at the complexities of the Amistad story and puts it firmly in the context of its times. A former teacher, Zeinert has written many books on history, several of them for Linnet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Linnet Books","offers":[{"title":"Amistad Slave Revolt and American Abolition | Karen Zeinert | Paperback | 9780208024398 | Used: Very Good | Back Stacks H 1749054","offer_id":48858687013016,"sku":"1749054","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/41ZCP8S0W6L.jpg?v=1775657257","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/amistad-slave-revolt-and-american-abolition","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
