From the publisher

Letters of the Late Ignatius Sancho, an African: To Which Are Prefixed, Memoirs of His Life is a book written by Ignatius Sancho in 1803. The book is a collection of letters written by Sancho, a former slave, to his friends and acquaintances. The letters are a testament to Sancho's intelligence, wit, and humanity, and provide insight into the experiences of a black man living in England during the 18th century. The book is prefaced with a memoir of Sancho's life, which details his early years as a slave in the British colony of Grenada, his escape to England, and his rise to prominence as a writer and composer. The memoir also explores Sancho's relationships with prominent figures of his time, including the abolitionist Granville Sharp and the actor David Garrick. Overall, Letters of the Late Ignatius Sancho, an African is a powerful and moving work that sheds light on the experiences of a remarkable individual and his place in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
