Caribbean Wars Untold : A Salute to the British West Indies

Metzgen (a former corporate executive at Times Newspapers, UK) and Graham (a retired major general in the British Army) present a history of warfare in the Caribbean from the time of Columbus, but pay particular attention to World War I and even more to World War II. The authors intend the work as a way of celebrating Caribbean contributions to British military victories, both as volunteers in the British armed forces and as producers of materials, as well as a significant area of sea war operations.
