The History of British Guiana V2: From the Year 1668 to the Present Time (1893) is a comprehensive account of the history of British Guiana, written by James Rodway. The book covers the period from 1668 to the late 19th century, chronicling the major events, people, and social and economic developments that shaped the region during this time.Rodway’s account is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a particular period or aspect of the history of British Guiana. The book begins with an overview of the early European explorers and colonizers who arrived in the region, and goes on to discuss the establishment of the British colony in the 18th century.The author also examines the impact of slavery on the region, including the slave trade and the eventual abolition of slavery in the mid-19th century. He also explores the role of the sugar industry in the economy of British Guiana, and the various political and social movements that emerged during this period.Throughout the book, Rodway draws on a wide range of sources, including official records, personal accounts, and historical documents, to provide a detailed and nuanced account of the history of British Guiana. The result is a comprehensive and engaging study of this important region, which will be of interest to anyone interested in the history of the Caribbean, colonialism, and the impact of slavery and sugar on the region.Volume Two Covers 1782-1888.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
