About this ebook

Cheryl King's study of Michael Manley's leadership of Jamaica in the 1970's is a well-written and informative study of one of Jamaica's most important post-independence political figures. Ms. King properly starts the study within the historical setting and limitations of Jamaica's colonial experience. The study then moves on to Manley's social democratic thinking and political principles, and his administration's less than successful efforts to work within the powerful chaotic international environment of the 1970's. Readers will encounter an engaging and wide ranging work of consequence. William B. Messmer, Ph.D., Drew University
