Enquiry Into The Validity Of The British Claim To A Right Of Visitation And Search Of American Vessels Suspected To Be Engaged In The African Slave Trade is a book written by Henry Wheaton in 1842. The book examines the British claim to have the right to search American vessels that were suspected of being involved in the African slave trade. The book discusses the legal and moral implications of this claim and argues that it is not valid. Wheaton, who was a lawyer and diplomat, provides a detailed analysis of international law and argues that the British claim violates the principles of sovereignty and the freedom of the seas. The book is a significant contribution to the debate on the abolition of the slave trade and the role of international law in regulating it. It is a well-researched and well-written book that provides a valuable insight into the legal and moral issues surrounding the African slave trade in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
