520    "Several years before Denmark legislated against the 
       Atlantic slave trade in 1792, the government, anticipating
       the decline of production in the Danish West Indies as a 
       consequence, embarked on a policy of agricultural 
       colonization in West Africa. Peter Thonning, a young 
       natural historian of the highly economic and geographical 
       Linnaean school, spent three formative years in Africa and
       then for decades administered Denmark's African colonial 
       undertakings. The international movement of colonial news 
       and ideas can very usefully be traced in his unpublished 
       writings, especially among the Guinea Commission's 
       extraordinarily wide-ranging records. These rich archives 
       and contemporary published opinion in this cosmopolitan 
       Scandinavian society open fresh perspectives on the 
       broader history and geography of European colonialism"--
