Wcs;Tiger In The Stars by

Concentrating on the decade after the end of indentureship in 1919, this book shows how the opportunity for Indian farmers to turn British Guiana into the rice-bowl of the Caribbean and to break the sugar monoculture was missed through planter opposition and governmental obstinacy. Nevertheless it was a period when an entrepenuerial and educated middle class emerged which was a key factor in the colony's future. The text is about possibilities. It celebrates the Indian Guyananese achievement and charts a histiography of hope in the Caribbean.
