Collection: Caribbean Colonial Statistics from the British Empire, 1824–1950 Volumes Leeward Islands, 1889-1945
The Leeward Islands include Antigua, Dominica, Montserrat, St Christopher, Nevis and the Virgin Islands amongst others. First settled by the Saladoid people, often from approximately 100 BC, these Islands were then settled by Amerindian peoples. Colonists initially attempted to enslave the native Amerindians on a number of colonies, until the soaring death tolls made this impracticable. African slaves were then imported en masse throughout the 1700s. These Blue Books cover the colonial period after the abolition of slavery, incorporating the Boer War and the First World War.
