History

This book explores the characteristics of Tamil indentured labour migration from Madras to the sugar plantations in Mauritius, British Guiana, Trinidad, Jamaica, St. Lucia, St. Vincent, Grenada, Natal and Fiji. Paying particular attention to the various types of contracts to these destinations and the development of human trafficking and coolie trade, it vividly describes the exploitative nature of work in the colonies. The volume analyzes the monstrous and inhuman treatment meted out to workers and how their hopes and dreams of fortune had been crushed out. The author exposes the social capital accumulated by the British planters, and highlights the role of labourers in the making of the British Empire.
