Sir James Mitchell's autobiography provides an intriguing insight into his long and eventful career at the forefront of Caribbean politics. During the thirty-five years that he was a Member of Parliament of the Grenadines, at the time of retirement Sir James had been the longest serving Prime Minister in the Caribbean, having spent eighteen years as the head of government, and the only one to have served from Colonialism through Statehood and Independence. In addition to this he was the only leader who founded a political party, and retired from office after winning four consecutive general elections.

paperback. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
