À bord du négrier: Une histoire atlantique de la traite (L'Univers historique)

The book delves into personal accounts and experiences, making me wonder how the author decided which stories to highlight and how he balanced narrative and historical accuracy.

While essential for understanding the brutality, some passages felt almost too vivid — was that a deliberate choice to evoke empathy or a risk of overwhelming the reader?

The flow of the narrative kept me engaged, and I’m curious whether this structure was planned from the start or evolved as research progressed.
