The West India Colonies: The Calumnies And Misrepresentations Circulated Against Them By The Edinburgh Review, Mr. Clarkson, Mr. Cropper, Etc. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781432664213)

The West India Colonies: The Calumnies And Misrepresentations Circulated Against Them By The Edinburgh Review, Mr. Clarkson, Mr. Cropper, Etc. is a book written by James M'Queen. The book is a detailed account of the West India colonies and the various slanders and misrepresentations that were circulated against them by the Edinburgh Review, Mr. Clarkson, Mr. Cropper, and others. The author argues that these calumnies were motivated by a desire to undermine the economic success of the colonies and to promote the interests of the abolitionist movement. M'Queen provides a detailed analysis of the economic, social, and political conditions in the West India colonies, and argues that they were not nearly as oppressive or exploitative as they were made out to be. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the West India colonies, the abolitionist movement, or the economic and social conditions of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
