摘要

Paget Henry's book on V.C. Bird goes beyond the scope of many biographies. In addition to chronicling the life and times of the subject, Henry makes forays into Afro-Caribbean philosophy and gives his views on the political economy of development and possible futures for Antigua and Barbuda. At times, the conversational style sounds like a personal dialogue between a storyteller/teacher and the small island society of Antigua and Barbuda. The book is organized in seven chapters. The first presents a profile of Vere Bird-his physical appearance, family and formative details, the various phases of his career in which he morphed from Salvation Army officer to small businessman to labour leader and finally to political leader and Prime Minister.
