This passage comes from a white coffee planter named P. J. Laborie. He wrote this book to share his expertise with other Britons

about the cultivation of coffee in Jamaica. In order to make the best of the powers of the enslaved African, and to keep him helpless, punishment is unfortunately sometimes necessary. Such also is the case with soldiers, with sailors, and with all servile classes of men. —P. J. Laborie: The Coffee Planter of Saint Domingo, 1798 Why would a historian find this to be a biased source of information? The author was not a slaveholder, but he gives his opinion about slavery. The author employs many different types of people. The passage includes untrue generalizations about groups of people. The author is commenting on other professions, not just coffee planting.
