Finding Myself: Essays on Race, Politics & Culture (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781845232474)

Clem Seecharan brings together two visions of Caribbean history--one public, the other personal--in his discussions of race, culture, and politics in Guyana and the Caribbean. Shaped over a period of 20 years, this is an elegantly written, scholarly, but highly accessible collection of essays that are essentially a map of how one of the Caribbean's most distinguished historians has sought to discover himself through practice of his craft. It covers new ground in Indo-Caribbean history primarily, but it also explores innovatively aspects of the intellectual legacy of four eminent Caribbean writers and thinkers: Guyanese poet Martin Carter, Guyanese historian Walter Rodney, Nobel laureate V.S. Naipaul, and C.L.R. James, author of one of the great books of the 20th century, Beyond a Boundary.
