Book Synopsis 1963 Rastafarians Rebellion Coral Gardens, Montego Bay Jamaica by : Ret. Detective Selbourne Reid
Download or read book 1963 Rastafarians Rebellion Coral Gardens, Montego Bay Jamaica written by Ret. Detective Selbourne Reid and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-04-24 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selbourne Reid, the author of this book is a retired Detective Inspector of Police. He was a member of the Rifle Squad which travelled in front with Inspector Fisher who led the charge in the operation against the Rastafarians. He saw a man chopped and killed within three to five (3ft-5ft) feet of where he was standing. When he turned around to run from the scene he observed that one of his co-workers who was standing behind him was already seriously wounded and was bleeding from a machete wound he received across the back of his neck and shoulder. That indicated that a Killer Rasta-man had passed behind him and chopped his co-worker. Selbourne ran from the scene of terror as there was no ammunition in his rifle and escaped unscratched. He credits his escape to Gods Divine Intervention on his behalf. Fisher had refused to issue the ammunition to his men. He apparently was hoping to hand over command to Superintendent Jimmy Ricketts who ordered the reinforcement to meet him at the scene but could not be found when he Fisher and his men arrived. He was seriously wounded but was saved by a brave corporal who got a round of ammunition from him, quickly loaded a rifle and shot the Rasta-man who was in the act of killing Fisher while he was on the ground. There is a lot of humor in this book. For example; Inspector Fisher rhetorically asked Where is Jimmy on most of the occasions when he was requested to issue the ammunition to his men so many people after learning of what transpired, wondered if Fisher was saying where is Jimmy where is Jimmy even when he was being chopped in his head by a Rasta- man. Ethical principles and a lesson to public officials in the social services and other public offices are included in this book. For example The Foster Mother applicant who prepared herself to grant sexual favors because she felt that such action would guarantee success in her application to become a Foster Mother for her nephew. Selbourne graduated from the University of the West Indies with a BSc.degree in Public Administration. He migrated to the USA where he did further studies and was employed in New York and later Florida as Child Welfare Officer, Probation Officer and school teacher. He is also the Author of Rastafarian Uprising (2010) and Gods Miraculous Healing Power (2011) which are available at the following: amazon.com, target, Barns & Noble, wwiic.com.

The bomb turns out to be a dud, but someone is putting the squeeze on Darcy Whitehall, and Monk DeVane enlists Zack to help protect his employer. When Zack arrives in Jamaica things quickly go to hell---more bombs (this time, for real), gnarly Jamaican politics, and the kinky diversions at Libido, where the prime spectator sport is watching guests frolic on the naked flume ride.

Book Synopsis The Bay of Lies Murder by : Mitch Grant
Download or read book The Bay of Lies Murder written by Mitch Grant and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Residents of St. James City adore the serenity of their isolated fishing village. But, when Hurricane Irma threatens to destroy everything they love they band together to help save what they can. As they begin to put their lives back together following the storm's near miss they learn that someone has senselessly stolen an old fishing chart. Initially, the loss of this chart is considered trivial. But, before long they begin to believe that the stolen chart contained clues to the location of one of Southwest Florida's legendary lost treasures. But, shortly they start to worry that the chart contained even more important information- information that could literally change American history. The Bay of Lies Murder, in addition to involving the reader in the hunt for treasure, reliving the experience of surviving Hurricane Irma, and describing enjoyable days spent fishing in the Gulf of Mexico, incorporates the history of Useppa Island and the role it played in the Bay of Pigs invasion. And, as if all that wasn't enough, the tale explores the roles played by the Cuban exile community, the CIA, and the Mafia in the assassination of President John Kennedy.All of these disparate elements serve to puzzle the protagonists as they, unwillingly, become more and more deeply involved. Eventually, after they get to know an elderly Cuban who had gifted the missing chart, they learn that not only had he participated at the Bay of Pigs, but that he might have played a far more important role in American history. Following his murder, they try to unravel a puzzle that he left for them- only to find that he has tasked them with preserving, and sharing, important and dangerous information. Trying to fulfill this obligation puts all of their lives at risk. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Mitch Grant was inspired to write his series of St. James City mysteries by his deep admiration for the writing of legendary Florida authors Randy Wayne White and John D. MacDonald. The author, a seventh generation Floridian, is a retired banker. He is also a one-time field artillery officer, sailor, licensed boat captain, champion auto racing driver, and, most recently, an aspiring buccaneer.He and his wife Sherry are now residents of Ormond Beach, Florida. But, their hearts remain in St. James City where they lived full time for many years. They return to the island often, and enjoy fishing, boating, playing cards, and partying with their island friends. When not engaged in these important pursuits they continue trying to educate their grandchildren in the ways of the legendary pirates that once called this part of Southwest Florida home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cocaine and Heroin Trafficking in the Caribbean exposes the nature and structures of illicit drug trafficking in the Caribbean. A complex reality is presented which is built upon the lies and deceptions of the war on drugs, the complicity of the elites of the Caribbean with the illicit trade and the failure of the agencies charged with interdicting the illicit trade in the Caribbean. The escalating levels of societal violence, instability, of crime and the stark contrasts of opulence in the midst of grinding poverty all linked to the illicit drug trade are dealt with. The underlying reality of failed states that facilitate illicit drug trafficking in the Caribbean with a future of violence and instability is the dominant reality of the Caribbean in the 21st century exposed and explained in this text.
Book Synopsis Scammer's Yard by : Jovan Scott Lewis
Download or read book Scammer's Yard written by Jovan Scott Lewis and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tells the story of Jamaican “scammers” who use crime to gain autonomy, opportunity, and repair There is romance in stealing from the rich to give to the poor, but how does that change when those perceived rich are elderly white North Americans and the poor are young Black Jamaicans? In this innovative ethnography, Jovan Scott Lewis tells the story of Omar, Junior, and Dwayne. Young and poor, they strive to make a living in Montego Bay, where call centers and tourism are the two main industries in the struggling economy. Their experience of grinding poverty and drastically limited opportunity leads them to conclude that scamming is the best means of gaining wealth and advancement. Otherwise, they are doomed to live in “sufferation”—an inescapable poverty that breeds misery, frustration, and vexation. In the Jamaican lottery scam run by these men, targets are told they have qualified for a large loan or award if they pay taxes or transfer fees. When the fees are paid, the award never arrives, netting the scammers tens of thousands of U.S. dollars. Through interviews, historical sources, song lyrics, and court testimonies, Lewis examines how these scammers justify their deceit, discovering an ethical narrative that reformulates ideas of crime and transgression and their relationship to race, justice, and debt. Scammer’s Yard describes how these young men, seeking to overcome inequality and achieve autonomy, come to view crime as a form of liberation. Their logic raises unsettling questions about a world economy that relegates postcolonial populations to deprivation even while expecting them to follow the rules of capitalism that exacerbate their dispossession. In this groundbreaking account, Lewis asks whether true reparation for the legacy of colonialism is to be found only through radical—even criminal—means.

Book Synopsis The White Witch of Rosehall by : Herbert G. de Lisser
Download or read book The White Witch of Rosehall written by Herbert G. de Lisser and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'The White Witch of Rosehall,' Herbert G. de Lisser spins a bewitching tale of love, power, and the supernatural set against the backdrop of 19th-century Jamaica. Drawing on the rich tapestry of Jamaican folklore and colonial history, de Lisser weaves a story that is both captivating and eerie, rooted in the prototypical plantation narrative and infused with gothic elements. His prose style marries the lush descriptions of the Caribbean landscape with the haunting aura of Rosehall, the reputedly haunted great house at the story's center. The novel's exploration of complex themes such as racism, slavery, and the cultural mysticism of obeah—an Afro-Caribbean spiritual practice—places it in the larger conversation of postcolonial literature and the legacy of the British Empire. Herbert G. de Lisser (1878–1944), a preeminent Jamaican journalist and author, was a seminal figure in his homeland's literary scene. His proximity to the sociopolitical developments of his time, including the stark racial and class divisions in post-emancipation Jamaica, profoundly influenced his writing. 'The White Witch of Rosehall' is perhaps his most famous work, arising from the legendary lore surrounding the real Annie Palmer, the alleged 'White Witch' who reigned with infamy over the Rosehall plantation. De Lisser's narrative is not only an unveiling of the deep-seated superstitions of the time but also a reflection on the complexities of colonial power dynamics. Recommended for aficionados of historical fiction and gothic romance, 'The White Witch of Rosehall' invites readers to delve into the dense underbrush of Jamaica's past. De Lisser's novel is an essential entry for those intrigued by the intersection of history and myth, and it provides a critical lens through which to examine issues of cultural identity and the unseen scars of colonialism. This DigiCat Publishing edition honors de Lisser's remarkable storytelling and ensures that new generations can unearth the chilling, yet telling, chronicle of The White Witch and the hauntingly beautiful land over which she ruled.
