Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aborigines of the West Indies A neglected field of scientific research, yet lying adjacent to and between the two great continents of America, is that comprising the vast collection of islands known as the West Indies. Although containing the first islands discovered by Columbus, and including the seas first traversed by Spanish ships, in the New World, it was many years before the actual condition and population of those islands was made known to the civilized world. Even' now, less, per haps, is known respecting them than of many portions of lands considered as unexplored. N 0 longer ago than 1878, I had the pleasure of discovering some twenty species of birds, which had until that time rested in obscurity, unknown and undescribed, and of sending to the Unit d States the first collection of aboriginal implements used by the Caribs of the Lesser Antilles. The West Indies are divided, as is well known, into the Greater and Lesser Antilles, the former comprising the islands of Cuba, Jamaica, Santo Domingo or Haiti, and Puerto Rico, to which we may add the Ms the latter, that crescent-shaped archipelago called the Caribbean Chain, connecting the larger islands with the continent of South America. These, again, are locally divided into Windward and Leeward, with reference to their situation respecting the prevailing trade-winds.

Columbus, and the early explorers following in his wake, found the Bahamas and the Greater Antilles (cuba, Haiti, Porto Rico, and Jamaica) inhabited for the larger part by a number of peaceable agricultural tribes speaking similar dialects of the Arawak language, now grouped by students under the name of Taino. In the large islands of Cuba and Haiti were also found a very primitive group of Indians, in Cuba called Ciboney, which, although apparently at one period occupying large.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Preliminary Report on an Archeological Trip to the West Indies Excavations in this cave Showed that it was once frequented by the aborigines, while pictographs on the walls gave other evidence of their former presence. There were found among the debris, on the ﬂoor, many. Fragments of the pottery peculiar to the islanders, and other evidences of primitive _life, among which were broken celts, bones of animals which had served for food, and also ashes and char coal. All of the implements and utensils were of ancient manufacture and so numerous that many people must have frequented this coast region and used this cave as their camping place. A few broken human bones were also uncovered, but whether they indicated former anthropophagous feasts or hurried interments could not be determined. The trenches dug in the cave ﬂoor through ten feet of debris showed, at all levels, art objects similar to those occurring on the surface, indicating no change in culture. There was no evi dence of any great modification between the life of the earlier and the later occupants, and no satisfactory proof that the occupancy of the cave was of very great antiquity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The West Indies In the following pages I have endeavoured to lay before the reader a sketch of the West India Islands from the time of their discovery to the present date. Regarded in a purely historical light, the annals of the Antilles are fraught with the deepest interest; for they portray most painfully the debasement consequent on slavery - a moral deterioration not confined to the wretched victims of an odious system, but exercising an equally pernicious influence on the ruling class, to whatever nationality they belonged. Spaniards, Frenchmen, and Englishmen have all been guilty of terrible excesses in that fair quarter of the globe; but, while betraying just indignation at the cruelties perpetrated by other nations, I have made no unfair effort to gloss over the deeds of my own countrymen.

There is also a class that go from tribe to tribe, and their medicine men. The intelligence of the natives is quite underrated. Their skill and activity in war, and their subtlety as diplomatists, Mr. Lang says, are quite equal to the North American Indian.

And his name shall be Theophilus William, which was that of his grand father, as true a Yankee as ever trod free soil. Lesbia, for this news thou shalt have thy' freedom within an hour; for none but a free woman may nurse my boy. The woman drew herself up to her full stature, and into her eyes ﬂashed a light that could never shine from those of a slave. Such a gift is beyond thanks, my master; but with my life will I serve thee and him. No longer thy master, Lesbia, but thy friend. Now tell me if I may see him? My friend, I will fetch him that thy eyes may look into his, answered the black woman, with the graciousness of one who confers a royal favor. Then she turned, and, with head proudly uplifted, looking neither to right nor left, she entered the house with the air of a princess.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Aborigines of Western Australia I am well aware that the subject is rather out of my line, and for this reason alone I can scarcely expect to do justice to the theme. Nevertheless, during my wander ings through Western Australia, in the capacity of a mining engineer, I came across a good many of the natives; and taking a profound interest in everything connected with the colony I resolved to set down in brief and simple form such facts as I could glean regarding this most curious specimen of the human race. I lay no more claim to originality than is due to one who has arranged his matter in his own way, and added a few thoughts suggested and accruing.

For the benefit of those (and their name is legion) to whom the name West Indies only vaguely recalls mixed ideas on yellow fever, rum, slaves and buccaneers, I will remind them that Grenada is an English colony, forming one of the Windward group, that it is a small place about the size of the Isle of Wight, and that it contains some fifty thousand in habitants in all shades, who collectively think no small amount of themselves.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The West Indies: Their Social and Religious Condition It is necessary, however, to remind my readers that the question to be determined, is not whether the enfranchised people of our West Indian Colonies have reached the platform of civilization and wealth occupied by the nations of Europe; but whether they have used well the twenty-three years of freedom they have enjoyed, and won such a position, in that short period of time in the life of a nation, as may fairly be expected of a race emerging from a cruel and debasing bondage. In my judgment, the answer must be given most em phatically in the afirmative. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
