This book was undertaken with a view to mental rest and relaxation. The author had not the time nor means to go to the mountains or seashore for u season of recuperation, and so wrote this volume. Three of the chapters— viii., xviii., and xix. —were penned some years ago. The remainder of the book was written during a part of the spring and summer of the present year.

  • The University of Hull Economic Growth in a Slave
    THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL ECONOMIC GROWTH IN A SLAVE PLANTATION SOCIETY: THE CASE OF JAMAICA, 1750 -1805 being a Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the University of Hull by Ahmed N. Reid July 2007 ABSTRACT This dissertation is an economic impact assessment of Jamaica's plantation economy from 1750 to 1805. In doing so, it measures and examines growth in completely new ways by employing, as indicators, output, land prices, labour flows and prices, national income, and productivity trends. The study maintains that, rather than declining, the economy was growing, with most of that growth taking place during the decade before the Transatlantic Trade in Africans was abolished in 1807. Growth was also facilitated by the policies adopted by planters to reorganize the plantation system. The presence of enslaved labour did not render the system inefficient. In fact, the economic reality was quite the opposite. The conclusion, therefore, is that with sufficient evidence of growth and productivity, abolition was not predicated only on negative cost benefit considerations.

  • "The Gilded Six-Bits" by Zora Neale Hurston
    "The Gilded Six-Bits" by Zora Neale Hurston It was a Negro yard around a Negro house in a Negro settlement that looked to the payroll of the G. and G. Fertilizer works for its support. But there was something happy about the place. The front yard was parted in the middle by a sidewalk from gate to doorstep, a sidewalk edged on either side by quart bottles driven neck down into the ground on a slant. A mess of homey flowers planted without a plan but blooming cheerily from their helter-skelter places. The fence and house were whitewashed. The porch and steps scrubbed white. The front door stood open to the sunshine so that the floor of the front room could finish drying after its weekly scouring. It was Saturday. Everything clean from the front gate to the privy house. Yard raked so that the strokes of the rake would make a pattern. Fresh newspaper cut in fancy edge on the kitchen shelves. Missie May was bathing herself in the galvanized washtub in the bedroom. Her dark-brown skin glistened under the soapsuds that skittered down from her washrag. Her stiff young breasts thrust forward aggressively, like broad-based cones with the tips lacquered in black. She heard men's voices in the distance and glanced at the dollar clock on the dresser. "Humph! Ah'm way behind time t'day! Joe gointer be heah 'fore Ah git mah clothes on if Ah don't make haste." She grabbed the clean mealsack at hand and dried herself hurriedly and began to dress.
