The Virgin Islands Story


Harrigan, Norwell & Pearl Varlack, The Virgin Islands Story, Epping, Essex, England: Bowker Publishing Company, 1975.

Reviewed in The Review of Black Political Economy, Winter 1977, Volume 7, Issue 2, pp 196-202 (photocopy within the book, along with review-notes by Dr. Thomas Mathews).

From the book sleeve :
In this … study, the authors have set out to tell the story of the islands from their discovery by Christopher Columbus, during his second voyage to the West Indies in 1493, up to the present. Their history reflects the special nature and traditions of the area, and brings together the past and present within the framework of a comprehensive analysis.
