Edward Long
Edward Long's three-volume History of Jamaica (1774) was the first attempt at a comprehensive description of the colony, constructed as a vigorous defence of its slave economy. Volume 2 includes county surveys, descriptions of inhabitants, a history of the slave rebellions and details of laws governing slavery.
