Book Description

Excerpt from An Inquiry Into the State of the British West Indies To those who are connected with the West Indies, it is likely that the whole of this pam phlet may afford some degree of interest. But the general reader, whose attention is fixed more on the result than on the detail of the inquiry, will be chiefly interested in the latter part - that part which begins in the Fourth Chapter, after the Report of the Committee of the House of Commons appointed to inquire into the commercial state of the West Indies, had come into the Author's hands.
