A Narrative of Events, since the First of August, 1834, by James Williams, an Apprenticed Labourer in Jamaica: Latin America Otherwise

Autor James Williams, Diana Paton
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 iul 2001
Describing the hard working conditions on plantations and harsh treatment of apprentices unjustly incarcerated, this book argues that apprenticeship actually worsened the conditions of Jamaican ex-slaves: former owners, no longer legally permitted to directly punish their workers, used the Jamaican legal system as a punitive lever against them.

"This is simply a fabulous compilation of materials. Paton carefully addresses an impressive range of historical and literary contexts that allow the contemporary reader to fully appreciate the importance of Williams's narrative."--Sandra Gunning, author of "Race, Rape, and Lynching: The Red Record of American Literature, 1890-1912"
