Yorkshireman Lionel Abson was the longest surviving European stationed in West Africa in the eighteenth century. He reached William’s Fort at Ouidah on the Slave Coast as a trader in 1767, took over the English fort in 1770, and remained in charge until his death in 180Յ. He avoided the ‘white man’s grave’ for thirty-six years. Along the way lie had three sons with an African woman, the eldest partly schooled in England, and a daughter named Sally. When Abson died, royal lackeys kidnapped his children. Sally was placed in the king’s harem; her brothers vanished. That king became so unpopular as a result of such misbehaviours that the people of Dahomey disowned him. Abson also mastered the local language and became an historian. After only two years as fort chief, he was part of the king’s delegation to make peace with an enemy, a unique event in centuries of Dahomean history. This singular hook recounts the remarkable life of a key figure in an ignominious period of European and African history, offering a microcosm of the lives of Europeans in eighteenth century West Africa, and their relation ships with and attitudes towards those they met there.
