Six Months in the West Indies, in 1825

Omtale

This light-hearted travelogue, published anonymously in 1826, describes twelve Caribbean islands, commenting on their natural history, society, architecture, culture and religion as well as reflecting upon plantations and the slaves working there. Henry Nelson Coleridge (1798–1843) punctuates his account with thinly disguised references to his distant fiancée Sara.
