History & Biography

“We are most indebted to the Rev. Dr. Cawley Bolt for a work of sound scholarship on a most interesting and provocative topic. He explores the use of the notion of the Negro character especially by the missionaries in the immediate post-emancipation period and somewhat beyond both to define the identity and to offer an explanation of the capacity and potential of the African people who had experienced slavery in Jamaica.”
