What they say
“I am honoured as a Kalinago leader to be part of this wonderful work as it relates to the history of our people.”

In this impressive book, Honychurch presents a history that emphasises a Kalinago perspective and shows the important role they have played in the complex social and cultural evolution of Dominica.

The product of a life-time of engagement and decades of study, Lennox Honychurch’s Resistance, Refuge, Revival tells the history of the Kalinago people of Dominica with consummate skill and compassion.
