Inspiring read

It was great to learn more about Thomas Clarkson who I knew from the film, Amazing Grace. This book shows the value of teamwork and it is obvious that TC did a HUGE amount of work in gathering evidence so that Wilberforce could carry the fight against slavery to parliament.
Well worth reading as an adult or for 11-14 year olds which is the age that the Trailblazer series is written for.
