“This book illuminates an important dimension of the African experience – returnees from the British West Indies to West Africa. While not entirely overlooked in the historiography, the theme has always lacked adequate biographies. This, therefore, is a welcome addition. It has the additional value that it employs the career of George Christian to illuminate a broader community of English Caribbean professionals who made sterling contributions to the political and economic development of Ghana.” —Franklin W. Knight, Professor Emeritus and Academy Professor, Johns Hopkins University
