Islanders in the Stream: A History of the Bahamian People Volume 2
examines the social developments of the Bahamas from 1834 to the
present. An eminent product of the New Social History, the volume
recounts adjustments to emancipation made by former masters and
former slaves between 1834 and 1900, traces the process of
modernization between 1900 and 1973, and concludes with a candid
study of social change since 1973, current problems, and an
analysis of what makes the Bahamas and Bahamians distinctive in the
world. The authors skillfully interweave broad historical narrative
with details drawn from travelers' accounts, autobiographies,
private letters, and reconstructed official dispatches and
newspaper reports. Lavishly illustrated with contemporary
photographs and original maps, this book is a model for national
histories.
