Abstract
SINCE Mr. Froude wrote on the West Indies, numerous books and pamphlets have been produced, either to show he was entirely wrong, or to supplement in some important particular the information he gave respecting these islands. The author of the little book before us took note of Mr. Froude's lament that all hand-books to the West Indies “were equally barren” of facts connected with the higher interest which the islands possess for Englishmen, and he seeks to supply the deficiency.
The Lesser Antilles.
