Excerpt from Bibliographia Jamaicensis: A List of Jamaica Books and Pamphlets, Magazine Articles, Newspapers, and Maps, Most of Which Are in the Library of the Institute of Jamaica The books have been classified under the various headings suggested by the works themselves, as well as by a study of Jamaica History. The list was originally compiled for insertion in the Jamaica Handbook for 1902. For the sake of space the titles were in some instances shortened, and the sizes Of the volumes and other bibliographical information omitted. But, even when compressed as much as possible, the list was found too long for insertion in the Handbook; and it is accordingly issued in its present form. A few notes of general cross-reference have been added to the classification, but complete cross-references would be more voluminous than the list itself. All books treating on the West Indies generally could of course be fairly in cluded in a Jamaica Bibliography, but, as this would have unduly swelled the list, it has been thought advisable to include only such West Indian books as deal with Jamaica alone, adding only a few Of the principal of those which deal chiefly with this island. All books and pamphlets dealing solely with Jamaica have been catalogued, without reference to merit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
