Abstract: 

This is an enormously welcome book-not only because it provides valuable descriptions and discussions of Caribbean creole varieties (primarily the English-based ones), but also because a significant proportion of its contents was produced by scholars native to the Caribbean, and the book itself was published in the Caribbean. I take these latter aspects of the book to be highly significant, and must therefore ask readers to bear with me as I digress to say why.
