Book Description
First published in 1764, The Sugar-Cane is a major work in the history of Anglophone Caribbean literature. It is the only poem written in the Caribbean before the twentieth-century to achieve a place in the Western "canon." Grainger sought to interpret his personal experience of the Caribbean through his wide and deep reading in literature, from the Greeks to Milton. Grainger wrote a "West India Georgic," challenging assumptions about poetic diction and the proper subject matter of poetry, and boldly asserting the importance of the Caribbean to the eighteenth-century British empire. This is the first reliable text and critical study of the poem, setting it within the context of Grainger's life and work.

Book Description
How did thousands of Chinese migrants end up working alongside African Americans in Louisiana after the Civil War? With the stories of these workers, Coolies and Cane advances an interpretation of emancipation that moves beyond U.S. borders and the black-white racial dynamic. Tracing American ideas of Asian labor to the sugar plantations of the Caribbean, Moon-Ho Jung argues that the racial formation of "coolies" in American culture and law played a pivotal role in reconstructing concepts of race, nation, and citizenship in the United States.
Jung examines how coolies appeared in major U.S. political debates on race, labor, and immigration between the 1830s and 1880s. He finds that racial notions of coolies were articulated in many, often contradictory, ways. They could mark the progress of freedom; they could also symbolize the barbarism of slavery. Welcomed and rejected as neither black nor white, coolies emerged recurrently as both the salvation of the fracturing and reuniting nation and the scourge of American civilization.
Based on extensive archival research, this study makes sense of these contradictions to reveal how American impulses to recruit and exclude coolies enabled and justified a series of historical transitions: from slave-trade laws to racially coded immigration laws, from a slaveholding nation to a "nation of immigrants," and from a continental empire of manifest destiny to a liberating empire across the seas.
Combining political, cultural, and social history, Coolies and Cane is a compelling study of race, Reconstruction, and Asian American history.

A Very Neglected Topic.......2007-01-30
Moon-Ho Jung has produced a very interesting work detailing the little known fact of the importation of large numbers of Chinese workers to the plantations in Lousiana. I disagee with the previous reviewer in that this is one of the few works out of the academic presses that is not overly ideological in its tone or presentation. The book quotes extensively from contemporary reports, especially newspapers of the period. It is also, unlike many academic volumes of recent times, a well written narrative.
I have little cause for complaint, but if I could make one it is that the situation in Latin America is not dealt with in sufficient depth. Chinese workers faced better conditions in most times and places there, but could also on some occasions face worse conditions. The same environment was not present there as in the United States, so some explanation is necessary as to why the same treatment was sometimes felt by the Chinese workforce. Also, comparitive work could be done on the position of Japanese workers who were also present in great numbers in both the United States and many different Latin American countries. Perhaps a future edition might cover this.
Moon-Ho Jung is an author new to me, and I hope to read more from him in the future. I would also recommend, as a companion to this book, one of the many fine volumes on the position of Chinese workers in California, as well as their role in the building of the western half of the transcontinental railroad. Most new general histories of the railroad now finaly do cover, at least a little, the position of the Chinese workers and their accomplishments.
Overly ideological history.......2007-01-28
Typical of recent multicultural efforts it is a book heavy on theory and unsupported assertions. Facts are only given when they support the multicultural agenda of the day. For example, in my reading of Chinese-American and European-American memoirs, I have found that relations are often shown as containing much more mutual respect than any multicultural historian will allow.
This book also uses "whiteness" rhetoric--a substitute for substantive analysis. Every group is tribal to an extent--favoring their religious, ethnic or cultural group. Examples aboud in Asia, for example, but everytime any European-American favors themself it is "whiteness." China and Japan have over their long histories have practiced their own discimination, such as massacres or immigration restrictions on foreigners. We of course don't reduce all of Japan's history to a criticism of "Japaneseness." Euroamericans were worse, of course, but some of the actions called "whiteness" are just the same cultural self-preference everyone else is allowed.
A Transformative Interpretation of Asian American History and the History of Emancipation.......2007-01-24
This book tells the little-known story of Chinese migrants who labored in the cane fields of Louisiana in the nineteenth century. More than a story of "recovery," however, Jung uses this episode to advocate for a radically different, politically driven interpretation of Asian American history as well as to probe larger enquiries about the formation of U.S. race, nation, and empire in the age of emancipation. Bringing together the studies of emancipation, U.S. nation- and empire-building, and Asian labor migration, Jung's work speaks to heretofore disjointed fields that, when critically examined side-by-side, produces rich new insights about American culture and the U.S. social formation.
The book opens with Jung situating the national push for Chinese exclusion within congressional debates over the meanings of slavery and freedom in the postbellum era. The Chinese Exclusion Act, he argues, rather than a result of anti-Chinese rancor in California, culminated from "U.S. imperial ambitions in Asia and the Caribbean and broader struggles to demarcate the legal boundary between slavery and freedom". An ambiguous figure situated between black and white, enslaved and free, the coolie generated contentious debates in the halls of Congress and in public discourse. Their exclusion, in the end, signaled the nation's rejection of its slavery past and a commitment to "freedom"--in terms of "free labor," "free trade," and European immigration--in the post-emancipation era.
In one of the most profound arguments of the book, Jung contends that the recruitment and exclusion of coolies ultimately recast the U.S. as a white nation of immigrants. Critical of recurrent liberal claims that Asians are just like other immigrants, he demonstrates how congressional proceedings about the Chinese's incapacity for citizenship "concretized America's self image as the `nation of immigrants' and consolidated the `immigrant' as European and white...". Rather than threatening this democratic and pluralistic image of the United States, the movement against the Chinese actually helped to preserve it.
The anti-coolie movement in Louisiana and the nation at large crucially reconstituted whiteness as the central component of U.S. national identity. Not losing sight of the importance of agency and resistance, the last chapter documents the ways in which Chinese workers waged struggles against their status as contracted labor, arguing significantly that it was in their everyday struggles that democracy survived against the reinvigoration of white supremacy. Recasting Asian American history not as a history of "immigration and assimilation, but of labor migrations and resistance", Jung has produced a terrific and much-needed piece of scholarship that has the potential to unsettle and redefine the field.

Book Description
Sugar cane has long been one of the world’s most important cash crops, and the sugar cane industry can be regarded as one of the world’s oldest industries. The industry involves three basic processes: the cultivation of cane, the milling of the cane to extract the juice and the rendering of the juice into crystal sugar. This book is a geography of the sugar cane industry from its origins to 1914. It describes the spread of the industry from India into the Mediterranean during medieval times, across to the Americas in the early years of European colonization, and its subsequent diffusion to most parts of the tropics. It examines changes in agricultural techniques over the centuries, the significance of improvements in milling and manufacturing techniques, and the role of the industry through its demand for labor in forming the multicultural societies of the tropical world. It is the first authoritative study of the development of the industry, in English, in forty years.

Book Description
Focusing on the masterslave relationship in Louisiana's antebellum sugarcane country, The Sugar Masters explores how a modern, capitalist mindset among planters meshed with oldstyle paternalistic attitudes to create one of the South's most insidiously oppressive labor systems. As author Richard Follett vividly demonstrates, the agricultural paradise of Louisiana's thriving sugarcane fields came at an unconscionable cost to slaves. But above all, labor management was the secret to the planters' impressive success. Follett explains how in exchange for increased productivity and efficiency planters offered their slaves a range of incentives, such as greater autonomy, improved accommodations, and even financial remuneration. These material gains, however, were only short term. Until recently, scholars have viewed planters as either paternalistic lords who eschewed marketplace values or as entrepreneurs driven to business success. Follett offers a new view of the sugar masters as embracing both the capitalist market and a social ideology based on hierarchy, honor, and paternalism. His stunning synthesis of empirical research, demographics study, and social and cultural history sets a new standard for this subject. AUTHOR BIO: Richard Follett teaches American history at the University of Sussex, England.

A very highly recommended addition to academic library collections.......2007-08-04
"The Sugar Masters: Planters And Slaves In Louisiana's Cane World, 1820-1860" by Richard Follett (American History Instructor, University of Sussex, England) is an analytical history of the employment of slaves in the sugar cane industry as practiced in Louisiana during the early 19th century. The focus is on labor management practices used to control and exploit a slave-oriented labor system within the contemporary context of capitalism, hierarch, paternalism, and ethics. A seminal contribution to pre-emancipation Louisiana, "The Sugar Masters" is a model of scholarship in terms of the underlying empirical research, as a demographic study, and in expanded our understanding of the social and cultural history of slavery, agricultural, and cultural practices of the era. A very highly recommended addition to academic library collections, "The Sugar Masters" is especially recommended reading for students in the disciplines of Black History, American History, Louisiana History, and American Economic History.

Good Source of Sugar Process Engineering Information.......2000-05-08
This book is, in many ways, a good companion volume to the other standard text in sugar cane engineering (Hugot, Handbook of Cane Sugar Engineering). Chen and Chou's book is oriented to the sugar processing aspect of sugar manufacture. The book is more about how to make sugar than how to make machines that make sugar.
The Cane Sugar Handbook covers raw sugar manufacture, refining, process controls, and analytical procedures.
The text is illustrated well with many line drawings, charts and graphs, and a few black and white photographs.
There are many useful data tables in the appendix. The text is fully referenced to papers and articles .
All in all a useful reference work to keep in your desk's top drawer (right next to Hugot).
