From Villain To National Hero: Chatoyer and the Early Struggle for the Independence of St. Vincent (Yurumein) by Adrian Fraser

I have just finished reading your work. It is necessary, timely, and needs to be available for all Vincentians and Caribbean people as soon as possible. Bringing it up to this current moment makes it unlike any other and gives the foundational knowledge on why we have elevated Chatoyer to national hero status. Great job indeed. Dr Garrey Michael Dennie Associate Professor of History St. Mary’s College of Maryland Fraser, in this new edition, traces the evolution of Paramount Chief Joseph Chatoyer from villain to hero. Moreover, a historiographical analysis of the man and his times points to a growing appreciation of Chatoyer and the Garifuna people’s role in the development of national consciousness. This is an excellent read. Paul Lewis, historian and former lecturer
