(4) YA Groundwork Guides series. Slavery has not disappeared, it's just become more difficult to see. This thought-provoking volume is full of disquieting information about globe-wide contemporary slavery.

The final chapter, followed by information on anti-slavery organizations, calls on governments and individuals to eradicate slavery. Reading list, timeline, websites. Ind.
