[285]-297). 520 $a Tells the story of the remarkable life of the British abolitionist William Wilberforce, and his extraordinary role as a human rights activist, cultural reformer, and member of Parliament. At the center of this heroic life was a passionate twenty-year fight to abolish the British slave trade, a battle Wilberforce won in 1807, as well as efforts to abolish slavery itself in the British colonies, a victory achieved just three days before his death in 1833. This is a man of whom it can truly be said: he changed the world. Before Wilberforce, few thought slavery was wrong. After Wilberforce, most societies in the world came to see it as a great moral wrong.--From publisher description. 600 10 $a Wilberforce, William, $d 1759-1833. 650 0 $a Abolitionists $z Great Britain $v Biography. 600 17 $a Wilberforce, William, $d 1759-1833. $2 sears 650 7 $a Legislators $z Great Britain $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Abolitionists $z Great Britain $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Philanthropists $z Great Britain $v Biography. $2 sears 651 7 $a Great Britain $x Politics and government. $2 sears 651 7 $a Great Britain $x History $y 1714-1837. $2 sears 941 $a 7 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409052137.0 952 $l PEPC626 $d 20220901010340.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518022430.0 952 $l N2AX314 $d 20210728014618.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20210612010223.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200528053532.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20090708133753.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C9B167FC6BF211DEA13FF332A8D7520A 994 $a C0 $b IM7Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
