Ann and I have worked together with the Farmland Museum for the past twenty-eight years. Apart from the museum, we have other interests in common, including a love of the Fens and its wildlife. When Ann heard I had been writing some “verses” on these subjects, she suggested that we should, for fun, publish them in a book We hope you, the reader, will get pleasure from our efforts: profits, from the sale of the book, assuming someone buys them, will go to our common cause, The Farmland Museum Friends.

The Interesting Life of Gustavus Vassa, The African This is the true story of an African slave who survived the Atlantic slave trade, and lived a life of high adventure. When he eventually settled in England at the end of the eighteenth century, Olaudah Equiano, known as Gustavus Vassa made a success of his life by campaigning for the abolition of slavery, a cause that he championed until his death in 1797. He married a spinster of the parish of Soham in Cambridgeshire, called Susannah Cullen, with whom he had two daughters. Only his daughter, Joanna Vassa would outlive him. |
