Biography
Edited by Carla Gardina Pestana, Sharon V. Salinger
For those who delve into the history of the Caribbean, this will be an indispensible tool. For those who chronicle the Carolina past, Gardina and Salinger’s work will offer valuable documentary insights into the place that those first settlers came from. If we gave starred reviews, The Early English Caribbean, 1570-1700 would get four of them. - Jack Fryar, Carolina Chronicles Magazine
