by Joseph J. Williams

About this book

John J. Williams, a Jesuit priest, describes the little known fact that black Irish and Scots who were deported and enslaved in Jamaica. The book is complete with images of these black indigenous Europeans that have been forgotten by most historians. Thus, this book opens an entirely new area of study that should be conducted to flesh out the incomplete history of the Transatlantic Slave Trade. The acceptance and documentation of the enslavement of black West Africans is well known, however, more needs to be known about these black Europeans that were deported and enslaved in Jamaica.
