Memoirs of a Jamaican Media-Man takes us on an epic journey through
the life of Carey Robinson, one of Jamaica's most accomplished
media personalities. He has worked as a jornalist (the Daily
Gleaner, Spotlight News Magazine) and broadcaster (Radio Jamaica
and the Government's Public Relations Office). He is the recipient
of a Silver Musgrave Medal, the award of Commander of the Order of
Distinction, and the Press Association of Jamaica's Lifetime Award
for Outstanding Public Service in television production.
The Rise and Fall of Falmouth, Jamaica (1655-1959), is an attempt
by writer and historian Carey Robinson to document the evolution of
Falmouth from its "hey days" - the year of the English Invasion in
1655 - to the start of the twentieth century when the Falmouth
Courthouse was destroyed by fire, symbolizing the end of
colonialism and the emergence of a new Jamaica. This text gives a
quick and sensitive glance into the history and legacy of the town.
Fight for Freedom is the story of those indomitable victims of
slavery who, during 200 years, resisted and died to keep the spirit
of individual liberty alive. Tacky, Three-finger Jack and Samuel
Sharpe spring vividly to life along with lesser-known, sometimes
nameless men and women. This book is full of insights into an
important aspect of Jamaican History.
