"This description of Jamaica in the late 1680s was written by a contemporary English observer, John Taylor, who spent some months on the island. The original manuscript is held by the National Library of Jamaica, and has rarely been used by scholars." "David Buisseret's work on this manuscript has taken nearly thirty years, and his annotations guide the reader through this extract of Taylor's original three volume manuscript." "This text will be useful to generations of scholars and students alike, and to anyone with an interest in Jamaica and its colourful history."--Jacket.
