Empire, enslavement, and freedom in the Caribbean

the long version

"Empire Enslavement and Freedom in the Caribbean is a wide-ranging collection which draws on Professor Craton's extensive writing on the history, culture and historiography of the British Caribbean, coherently organised in three thematic units."--BOOK JACKET. "This book is one of the few single-authored collections of exclusively historical essays relating to the Caribbean. It mixes description, narrative and traditional historical analysis with the cliometric and cross-disciplinary methods of the New Social History."--BOOK JACKET.
