Memoirs of a West-India Planter is a book published in 1827, written by John Riland. The book is based on an original manuscript and provides a detailed account of Riland’s experiences as a planter in the West Indies. The memoirs cover a period of over 20 years, from Riland’s arrival in Jamaica in the late 1700s to the early 1800s. The book provides a vivid portrayal of life on a West Indian plantation during this time, including the harsh realities of slavery, the challenges of managing a plantation, and the social and political climate of the region. Riland also shares his personal observations and experiences, including his interactions with other planters, slaves, and local officials. The book is a valuable historical document, providing insight into the economic, social, and political conditions of the West Indies during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It is also a fascinating personal account of one man’s experiences in this unique and complex environment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
