Book/Sentence meme

From several different LJs:

* Grab the nearest book.
* Open the book to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
* Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

Eric Williams, <i>Capitalism & Slavery</i>, New York: Capricorn Books, 1966.

Not a nail, not a horseshoe, said Chatham, could be manufactured, nor hats, nor iron, nor refined sugar.
