Fortifications were designed to protect trading enclaves from rival European powers & to “store” slaves until departure
Military conflict took the form of naval battles between rival European powers to control the coastal enclaves or island fortresses.
Europeans fought one another for the control over coastal enclaves and dominance of the sea lanes for the sale of slaves to the Americas.
Travel books and published memoires written by sea captains or company directors gave great detail about the slave trade and the preparations for its conduct.
Some books included detailed maps of the coast with much information about the purchase of slaves and specific information about the coastal forts.
Some accounts include information about the plantations of crops from the “New World” that were grown to feed slaves in the Middle Passage.”
