Description

"Concentrating on writings of Maria Nugent, Mary Prince, Mary Seacole, Anna Mahase, Sarah Norton, and Adella Archibald, author shows how greater and systematic use of records left by women can enhance our understanding of Caribbean history. Mahase, Morton, and Archibald are especially important for showing changing marriage patterns for Indo-Trinidadian girls and impact of Canadian missionaries on the lives of Indo-Trinidadian women"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
