Beyond Barbados: The Carolina Connection

Beyond Barbados: The Carolina Connection

"Beyond Barbados: The Carolina Connection" traces the historic influence of the small island of Barbados on the wealth and success of a place 2,000 miles away: the Carolinas. Scholars examine the cultural exchange that impacted the development of language, food and architecture, and recount how the economic and governmental systems created, tested and proven by the West Indies sugar industry forged the prosperity and power of the Carolinas — chief among them the institution of slavery.
