A Concise History of the Caribbean offers a comprehensive
interpretation of the history of the Caribbean islands from the
beginning of human settlement to the present. It narrates processes
of early human migration, the disastrous consequences of European
colonisation, the development of slavery and the slave trade, the
extraordinary profits earned by the plantation economy, the great
revolution in Haiti, movements towards political independence, the
Cuban Revolution, and the diaspora of Caribbean people. In this
second edition, Higman covers the political, social, and
environmental developments of the last decade, offering sections on
insular politics, Cuban communism, earthquakes, hurricanes, climate
change, resource ecologies, epidemics, identity and reparations.
Written in a lively and accessible style, and current with the most
recent research, the book provides a compelling narrative of
Caribbean history essential for students and visitors.
