St. Lucia, with its amalgam of French and English traditions, has a rich culture and history. The island changed colonial masters many times during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries and, although English has been the official language for nearly 200 years, French Creole is still widely spoken. Over the years the country has been characterized by a boom and bust economy, in which military bases, both British and American, have provided welcome employment for short periods of time. Since the early 1970s, however, tourism has expanded rapidly, bringing great benefits to the national economy. All aspects of the history, the environment, and the economic, social and political development of St. Lucia are covered in this volume, as are its varied peoples and cultures.

"A History of St Lucia is the first-ever detailed and comprehensive record of St Lucia's turbulent past. Beginning with the island's geological formation and subsequent Amerindian occupation, this book takes one through colonization by France and England to the rise and fall of the sugar industry, the tribulations of slavery, the feverish hopes and fears of the Brigand Wars and, eventually, Emancipation. After 1838, St Lucia's newly freed people went in search of independence, dignity and respectability: an era marked by the immigration of indentured workers from Barbados, Africa and India, the rise of a peasantry, and a labouring class in search of new horizons. The arduous battle with 'Mr Hard Times' formed fertile soil for a hard-fought coming of age in the 20th century when unions and political parties developed amidst the turmoil of two World Wars and a city's Death by Fire. Forcing King Sugar to his knees paved the way to a new St Lucia, built on the 'green gold' of the banana industry- an era which in many ways came to an end in 2007 with the passing of the architect of independence, Sir John Compton"--Back cover.

His Conway name was Sonny Boy, and it was in Conway that he grew from infancy to adulthood and became a shipwright, carpenter, joiner, fisherman, and musician. In The Conway St. Lucia, author Clement Springer Williams remembers his life growing up in Conway St. Lucia, especially as this small community weathered World War II. Through this collection of stories, Williams narrates the sights, sounds, people, and culture of Conway. It was predominantly a fishing village, and fishing was his joy and his pastime. Conway was also the place that gave him an appreciation for intrinsic beauty, for divine revelation in things like the rising of the morning star and the bright and luminous beauty of the evening sunset. In this memoir, Williams tells about his many and varied experiences in this community whose people lived in unity and supported each other in every calamity-from saving lives to feeding the hungry, launching vessels, and burying the dead. The Conway St. Lucia shares the remembrances of yesterday and celebrates the changes of today.

An often thrilling first-hand account of island politics in the era after independence. The St Lucia Labour Party (SLP) comes to power after 15 yeards in the wilderness and hardly settles into office before it is rent asunder by internal bickering over its leadership. In less than three years, the party is out of office again and both it and its main characters are fighting for their respective political lives. SHATTERED DREAMS is the story of the ups and downs of political activism and the personalities and events that shaped the emergence of the Caribbean island, for whose possession the English and French fought some of the bloodiest in this hemisphere in the 18th century. In SHATTERED DREAMS, Josie attempts to show how the rise to power in sister island Grenada of the Peoples Revolutionary Government (PRG) under Marxist Maurice Bishop in 1979 influenced super power involvement in the affairs of the Caribbean islands and could have contributed handsomely to the demise of both the SLP in the St Lucia and the PRG in Grenada.
