Description

A timeline of the 1979 revolution from earliest origins to tragic end. The revolutionary period in Grenada grew from the legacy of Eric Gairy to Maurice Bishop, from the 1970s through 19 October 1983. The Grenada Chronicles contain a detailed, day-by-day chronology of the events and people involved in the time of Gairy and the People’s Revolutionary Government reflected from print sources. The Grenada Chronicles aim to be accurate in truth and in context. In an effort to assure accuracy, the source of information contained on this volume is stated. The limits and biases of the print source are varied. Sources cited favor original documents. The motive for this work is to provide information at the Grenada Revolution and not using a attempt, either implicit or manipulative, to present a political interest. A key reason to dwell upon the Grenada Revolution is that it must be told; to be passed on to the next generation. The story needs telling both for the form it took, but also for the up to date lessons it may give. The resolution of the lessons taught is that this sort of tragic outcome might never happen again. The realities of the human condition are that malice and hope are strong forces. The Grenada Chronicles tell the strange struggle of the youthful New Jewel Movement comrades and their evolving struggles with human frailty.
