This book offers insights into the business organisations and the myriad of men that took to the Spanish asiento de negros, a contract between the Spanish Monarchy and private parties to introduce enslaved Africans to Spanish America. As the Spanish American market was the largest single market for enslaved people prior to 1720, the participants in the asiento framed single-handedly the political economy of all European empires in the Atlantic for nearly two centuries.
