JSTOR Primary Sources: An Interview with Padraic Scanlan - YouTube JSTOR

We sat down with Padraic Scanlan, a historian at Harvard (and former Jeopardy! champion) who is adapting his doctoral dissertation into an upcoming book on slavery and abolition in Sierra Leone. Padraic discussed how he uses primary sources in his work to explore the social and cultural history of how the abolition of the British slave trade was implemented. Padraic speaks to the power of online primary sources like the JSTOR 19th Century British Pamphlets for their ability to follow the course of debates that shaped history.
