The Lives and Work of Two Indo-Trinidadians: Influences of Indentureship, Evangelisation and Education

Around thirty-five per cent of Trinidad and Tobago's population are of Indian descent. From 1845 to 1917, indentured labourers from India arrived in the former British colony to address the labour shortages following the abolition of slavery in 1838. This book examines the lives and work of two descendants of Indian indentured immigrants who lived and worked in the north of Trinidad.
