When Olaudah Equiano first came on board a ship belonging to the British navy his first instinct was to be fearful. He had no idea who the people were and what they were going to do with him, for all he knew they were going to eat him! Though after a time he became accustomed to his life as a sailor and accepted it.
As a sailor Equiano learned many things such as, the English language, sailing, and fighting as a sailor for the British navy.
