Slave Ship Fredensborg by Leif Svalesen, translated by Selena A. Winsnes and Pat Shaw, published by Indiana University Press, November 2000.
Has anyone read it? Is it true that, "The clunky translation gets in the book's way..."?

I haven't read it, but greatly appreciate the referral. I found another gift, yeah!!--albeit for an academic who is comfortable with clunky translations. If and when she reads it I will pass on any info. Sounds like if anything the book would be an interesting piece of history for VI residents since it is stated to be the most documented slave ship.
