This powerful book argues persistently that the historical settlement of liberated Americans of African descent had a destabilizing impact on the geography, politics, social and economic structure, environment, and culture of Liberia. The author also draws attention to the environmental consciousness of indigenous Liberians and delves into the historical roots of the principle health problems and industrial activities threatening Liberia's environment. Contents: Glossary; Liberia Historical Roots; Geographical Description of Liberia; The Arrival of New Settlers; Historical Review; Environmental Devastation; Introduction; Principle Health Problems Which Have Historical Roots; Building of Monrovia: A Case Study; Impact of Foreign Capital on National Decision; Deforestation and Ecological Impact; The Impact of Iron Ore on Aquatic Biomass; Proposal of a New Environmental Policy in Liberia, Summary and Recommendations; Endnotes; Bibliography.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1826 edition. Excerpt: ... selves in small towns near every road-stead and station frequented by trading vessels; where they often remain, unless summoned home to assist on some grand national occasion, from two to six, and even ten years, according to their success in accumulating a. little inventory of valuables, with which their pride is satisfied to return to their friends and country. These people are decidedly the most active, enterprising, intelligent and laborious in this part of Africa; and in the size, strength and fine muscular proportions of their persons, have few superiors, as a nation, in the world. The number of families belonging to their settlement near the mouth of the Montserado, scarcely exceeds a dozen, and may comprehend fifty individuals. The purchase of the Montserado territory was effected in December of 1821; of which transaction, a particular account was published by the Colonization Society, a few months afterwards. The occupation of the country by as many of the dispersed American emigrants as could be collected, early in the following year, was also announced by Dr. Ayres, on his return to the United States, the same season; and noticed in the report of the Society, for 1823.-Two small schooners belonging to the Colony were employed in the transportation of the settlers in January, 1822; in which service they continued to be occasionally occupied, until the latter part of the following May. But in this period a variety of unpleasant indications of the hostile temper of the Dey people, fully demonstrating the insincerity of their engagements in relation t the lands, were but too distinctly attbrded the settlers. 5 On the arrival of the first division, consisting chiefly of the single men, the natives positively, and with menaces...

'Beyond the Palm Trees' begins with the historic arrival of American Free Black Slaves in what was once known as the 'Grain Coast', now called 'Liberia'. It illustrates how the acquisition of land began in the country and the establishment of the 'Oil Palm Plantations Company', the first and largest plantation in Liberia. 'Beyond the Palm Trees' reflects the story of a young man from the country-side whose primary ambition to marry and live a normal family life was derailed by a series of unfortunate events including catching his newly wedded wife in bed with another man. Later, he married another who produced two, fine sons. However, due to his frequent and prolonged absences from his village because of work, the young man one day returned home and met his wife heavily pregnant for another man. Disillusioned, he decided to permanently leave his beloved village to begin a new life elsewhere in Liberia. With two failed marriages behind him, he lost faith in all women and vowed never to marry again. However, when faced with the trauma of loneliness in his new environment he reconsidered his decision.Returning home one evening from a regular habit of drinking Bamboo Wine at a popular venue, he met a woman wandering in the cover of darkness, not far from his dwelling unit in the plantations. Obsessed with traditional hospitality and sympathy for strangers, he made a good impression and this resulted in a hasty traditional marriage. However, five years down the line, he uncovered an illicit affair between his wife and the area manager under whose supervision he had worked for over twenty-two years. The area manager, in fear of retribution hastily prompted an early retirement of his employee as an excuse to evict him from the plantations' housing unit. The area manager, rushed to his home village called 'Lopolu', to seek juju protection and to urge the ju-ju-men to kill the man he had cuckolded. Having lost his job, his wife and his dwelling unit but not his life, the man sought to revenge by putting an end to all juju activities in Lopolu. He then returned to his new locality, called Freeman Town. There, he practised his newly acquired juju skills to his own advantage. But this venture apparently affected the livelihood of other people in the 'Oil Palm Plantations Company' and beyond. Among those badly affected was the revered leader and founder of the 'the African Apostolic Faith', a Pentecostal Spiritualist establishment within the plantations. And in the ensuing rivalry between Christianity and traditional belief system, the African Apostolic Faith lost most of its members to the newly self-declared juju-man which in turn, decreased the weekly intake of the church with devasting effects. 'Beyond the Palm Trees' is a novel but has certain elements of cultural truth and practices which still hold sway in Liberia and elsewhere in West Africa. This story does not reflect the true images of persons who may still bear the actual names of its main characters: there's no entity known as the ''Oil Palm Plantations Company'' in Liberia; and apart from the villages of Nyandemoh-Lahun in Lofa County; Dar-Es-Salaam in Cape-mount County; and Gbakokoyata in Bong County; there is no settlement in Liberia known as 'Lopolu or Freeman Town. References made of Gardnersville, Bardnersville; Charlesville and other settlements are purely an illustration of fictional dimensions and have nothing to do with the reality of the present day geopolitical divisions of Liberia.
