Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the intricacies of plantation management in Jamaica during a time when absentee ownership was commonplace. The author, a seasoned planter himself, provides a detailed critique of the existing system, which he argues is rife with corruption and inefficiency. He particul…arly targets the role of plantation attorneys, highlighting their self-serving practices that often lead to the exploitation of both slaves and landowners. Through vivid anecdotes and a clear, analytical approach, the author exposes the devastating consequences of mismanagement and the destructive impact of powerful figures who prioritize personal gain over the well-being of the estates they control. The book delves into the complex relationship between planters, attorneys, and slaves, offering insightful commentary on the prevailing social and economic structures of the time. The author's passionate call for reform emphasizes the importance of ethical leadership and responsible management in securing the prosperity of both plantations and the individuals involved in their operation. The bookââ â¢s insights remain relevant today, reminding us of the enduring need for transparency, accountability, and a commitment to ethical conduct in all aspects of business.
