Documented with statistical tables, this title discusses the 19th Century Indian indentured labour migration to plantation economies in the tropical world. It aims to enable comparisons to be made in identifying the factors that shaped the commonalities and the distinctive features of particular indentured systems.

Dr David Chanderbali was born in Guyana. He studied in Guyana and completed doctoral research at the Australian National University. He taught in the Department of History at the University of Guyana and is now the Registrar at that university.
