Whitehead's creepy tales of magic and voodoo: "Jumbee" (Weird Tales, 1926), "The Shadows" (Weird Tales, 1927), "Cassius" (Strange Tales, 1931), "Black Tancrede" (Weird Tales, 1929), "Sweet Grass" (Weird Tales, 1929), "Mrs. Lorriquer" (Weird Tales, 1932), "The Passing of a God" (Weird Tales, 1931), and "Hill Drums" (Weird Tales, 1931).
In 'The English in the West Indies; Or, The Bow of Ulysses', James Anthony Froude takes readers on a tour of the West Indies during the late Victorian era, showcasing the Empire in various forms of degradation. Froude argues that self-governance is not suitable for the West Indies, believing it is the Empire's responsibility to govern them well. Froude's book is a mixture of travelog and discussion of the Empire's issues and potential solutions, including the effects of sugar bounties and slavery. Although Froude's views may be controversial to modern readers, his book provides valuable insights into the West Indies during the Empire's heyday.
This history of the West Indies makes special mention of Jewish life in St. Eustatius.
