Remnants of conquest

'This will be a useful text for courses in postcolonial literature, especially those that have an emphasis on travel and inter-cultural encounter. However, it also may have a broader appeal for graduate courses and research concerned with the cultural geography of race, ethnicity and indigeneity.' -Cultural Geographies'The book addresses a compelling range of questions about travel, indigenous identity and postcoloniality... A key contribution of this book is its exploration of complex questions of race and ethnicity.' -Cultural GeographiesRemnants of Conquest offers a detailed account of the modern writers who have visited the Caribs, descendents of the supposedly fierce tribe in the West Indies who fought against European invaders for three centuries.
