To accurately determine the author’s overall purpose in the text, we need to analyze the content and context provided in the text itself. However, if the goal is to ascertain the main focus based on the options given, I will provide a general guidance:
If the text covers the events surrounding slavery in America specifically, option A (to explain how slavery was eventually ended in America) might fit well. However, if it emphasizes the processes and implications of the Atlantic slave trade, option C would be more appropriate.
For a precise answer, please refer to the main themes or focus outlined in the text you are studying. You can compare the descriptions in the options to the main arguments presented.
