Sinopsis

Life On The Gold Coast is a book written by Charles Alexander Gordon in 1874. The book is a detailed account of the author?s experiences on the Gold Coast, a region in West Africa that was known for its rich gold deposits and its role in the transatlantic slave trade. Gordon was a British colonial administrator who was stationed on the Gold Coast in the late 19th century. In his book, he describes the daily life of the people who lived and worked on the Gold Coast, including the indigenous tribes, the European traders, and the African slaves who were brought to the region.The book provides a fascinating insight into the social, economic, and political conditions of the Gold Coast at the time. It covers topics such as the impact of the slave trade on the region, the role of European traders in the local economy, and the struggles of the indigenous people to maintain their cultural identity in the face of colonialism.Gordon?s writing is vivid and engaging, and he provides a wealth of detail about the people and places he encountered during his time on the Gold Coast.
