There has been an Irish presence within the Caribbean since at least the 1620s and yet the historical and cultural dimensions of this encounter remain relatively under-researched and are often conceived of in reductive terms by crude markers such as red legs or poor whites. This collection explores how the complications and contradictions of Irish-Caribbean relations are much richer and deeper than previously recognized.
