Summary "Ned Garth; Or, Made Prisoner in Africa: A Tale of the Slave Trade" by W.H.G. Kingston is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. The tale follows young Edward Garth and his uncle, Lieutenant Pack, as they navigate the treacherous seas and confront the horrors of the slave trade. The story begins with a gripping scene of the pair witnessing a ship in distress, setting the stage for themes of bravery, family bonds, and the struggle against injustice. At the start of the novel, Edward and Lieutenant Pack are on a cliff in southern England when they spot a ship, presumably a brig, that is in trouble due to rough seas. The scene is filled with urgency as they attempt to summon help for the ship's crew while reflecting on their long-standing connection to the ocean and its hazards. Their kind-hearted nature is emphasized through their mission to deliver aid to an injured fisherman. As the narrative unfolds, a shipwreck leads them to rescue a shipwrecked gentleman named Mr. Farrance, who shares an incredible tale of survival linked to the slave trade, further intertwining Edward's fate with the larger issues of humanity and morality.
