James Hakewill
Hakewill toured Jamaica in 1820 to 1821.
His works were published in England in 1825.
Some of Hakewill's works give glimpses, among the great houses and sugar works, of ordinary Jamaicans and their lives in the 1820s; those will be the ones on this page.
The view of Harbour Street and the people on it is my favourite Hakewill!
