    The Rise and Fall of Falmouth, Jamaica (1655-1959), is an attempt by writer and historian Carey Robinson to document the evolution of Falmouth from its "hey days" - the year of the English Invasion in 1655 - to the start of the twentieth century when the Falmouth Courthouse was destroyed by fire, symbolizing the end of colonialism and the emergence of a new Jamaica. This text gives a quick and sensitive glance into the history and legacy of the town.

    When Banana Was King looks at a time when Jamaicans battled Americans for control of the billion-dollar banana trade. They battled in boardrooms and battled on wharves with knives and guns over the tasty, strangely shaped fruit. The most controversial of the banana men back then was Jamaican, A.C. Goffe. "There are two prominent men in the shipping world today who Jamaica and Jamaicans are bound to respect.A.C. Goffe and Marcus Garvey," a newspaper reported in 1920. Goffe, a black man whose mother had been born a slave, courted controversy. In 1908, he was arrested in Baltimore and charged with conspiring with the Mafia to kill a banana rival and in 1918 he was charged with murdering a Jamaican who stole coconuts from one of his plantations. Not surprisingly, Goffe, who owned a chunk of the Ocho Rios area that is today a centre of the island's tourist industry, clashed with everyone from Jamaica's Prime Minister to reggae star Bob Marley. Love him or hate him, A.C. Goffe was, an observer noted, one of the Jamaicans who "crossed the Frontiers, put Jamaica beyond the pale of the primitive and brought the country into modern trade, commerce and business."

    One of the most important things that citizens in democratic countries are asked to do as a part of their contribution to help preserve their democracy, is to vote to decide who from among them the majority wish to authorise to govern. Any country in which it is possible to exploit that process and deny persons of their Right to Vote, or allows persons other than the electors to cast their votes, puts the future of that democracy at serious risk. The author is satisfied that in many practising democracies, some persons, who are entitled to vote and try to exercise that right, are still being denied the opportunity to vote and have their votes counted to determine who is elected into government. The author has designed an automated electronic system that interacts directly with each person whose information is stored in its data base. This system can be used worldwide to address electoral problems but it can also be used for many other purposes to guarantee that only persons so authorised can carry out certain activities.
