Health, Wealth and Population in the Early Days of the Industrial Revolution
First Published in 2005.It is the primary object of this study to endeavour to elucidate the main causes of the rapid growth of population in England in the 18th and early 19th centuries, with special reference to the period 1750–1815. This enquiry is narrow in time and place but deals with the time and place in which the rapid growth of population had its origin. In pursuit of the main subject of this enquiry certain aspects of the period, previously often ignored, have been brought, into clearer perspective.
British Slave Emancipation
This is a study of the West Indies in the mid-nineteenth century. William A. Green draws together the experiences of more than a dozen different sugar colonies and forms them into a coherent historical account. The first part of the book examines the West Indies on the eve of emancipation in 1830; the second explores the politics and society of the islands during the period 1830-1865, a key passage in West Indian history. Professor Green presents a clear general picture of the sugar colonies, and places British governmental policy towards the region in the context of Victorian attitudes towards colonial questions. His lucid and comprehensive account is an important contribution to Caribbean history.
