- This book is based on several decades’ research in archives in Jamaica, London, Melbourne, Philadelphia and Virginia, including the creation of large databases of many thousands of records. It is the first comprehensive study of Jamaican politics, economics, society and culture in this period, and updates scholarship that is now 50 years old. Its main insight, based on a combination of social, political and cultural history, concerns the experience of Revolution in Britain’s most important eighteenth-century colony, yet one that does not figure prominently in studies of eighteenth-century politics.
