I need to do some more research on the matter, but I believe that history differs in this book surrounding William Wilberforce. In this book, his campaign in parliament to stop slavery loses due to the words of Admiral Nelson. Historically, I think he succeeded in abolishing it, but I don't know if he succeeded at that exact meeting or not, so we should add this to the article once more research is done.

I believe you are correct. Nelson actually died in 1805, so he was not alive to stop the 1807 bill. -- Strangerface 20:47, 27 August 2010 (PDT)
