Union Island is the third largest islands of the Grenadines part of the nation of St Vincent and the Grenadines. "Its history, for the most part, is an independent one that dates back to the mid-18th Century. During the 17th and 18th Centuries, Union Island was a hub for the French privateers that traversed the waters of the Grenadines on their voyages to the larger Islands in the region. And there are a lot of informative and intriguing information that is derived from the Caribbean during the early European presence. Unfortunately, the history of these islands in the vicinity (St. Vincent, Grenada, St. Lucia, and Dominica) [has been] vaguely documented".
Autorenporträt
The author is a Caribbean middle-aged male, whom one can classically call "A student of life." Despite having limited resources available to him throughout his youthful years, he has always found a way to attain knowledge via creative utilization of every opportunity and challenges he has encountered. Working his way up, he has self-taught and mastered the discipline of woodworking before eventually preparing himself for a career in the medical field as a HealthCare Provider -a passion he has long harbored since he was a young boy. Observing the phenomenon of Caribbean immigrants that have left their homes each year in search of a better life in America has prompted him to examine the trend of relocation, and the impact that it has on them. Armed with the knowledge that had been passed down to him from elders, coupled with his youthful experiences, assertiveness, and unwavering tenacity for knowledge, he set out to archive his valued collection -history rather. Over the span of a decade, he has amassed a wide array of information by way of interviews, books, and an extensive range of Internet research. Steadily piecing together an accurate and intricate story-like narrative of his birthplace, this erudite has expressed it superbly in his second book, Union Island's History -Servitude, Metayage & Civilization. His work is surely a Classic.
