Searching for the Invisible Man: Slaves and Plantation Life in Jamaica
Michael Craton
Though centered on a single Jamaican sugar estate, and dealing largely with the period of formal slavery, this book is firmly placed in far wider contexts of place and time. The "Invisible Man" of the title is found, in the end, to be not just the formal slave but the ordinary black worker throughout the history of the plantation system.
