Near Fine.<br /> <br /> These books print observations and official dispatches beginning in 1871 that tell the story of the Barbados insurrection beginning in 1876. "Slavery in Barbados was abolished in 1834. . . Despite gaining their freedom in the sense of no longer being 'owned' officially life for plantation workers remained difficult for many years. Perhaps the same children whose parents avoided having them apprenticed became involved 40 years later in the Confederation Riots of 1876. The primary cause of these riots is often cited as the proposed confederation of Barbados and the Windward Islands. However it is very likely that this was one cause of many and the primary reason for unrest and unhappiness was down to pay working and living conditions. The 'despatches' of 1875 describe cases of death by starvation - one of a baby whose mother had had to return to work weeks after giving birth and could not feed her daughter often enough or worked so hard so soon that she could not produce enough milk. According to the rector of the Parish Church this was a common occurrence. . . Cases such as this were the primary causes of unrest in Barbados in the 1870s. These cases illustrate the difficulties faced by the descendants of enslaved African-Caribbeans and the long lasting legacy of the slave trade." online The National Archives essay 'When did plantation workers in Barbados truly become free'.
