Jamaican Migrant (1965) is the honest and moving recollection of a Jamaican cabinet-maker who emigrated to a new life in Britain. This is the book of a man who has been through the whole story in his own life - from childhood in Jamaica, to the problems and sophistication of girls and jobs and solitude in a London winter.
