About Me
Hello All, here I am blogging at last!
I’m a 50+ Jamaican woman who has traveled a bit but has always lived in Kingston. I’m also a unrepentant bookaholic.
I’ll write mostly about Jamaica and Jamaican History, which is my main interest. In fact I publish lots of information on my website, Jamaica-Allspice.com. But there’s always lots on my mind so I hope all my friends will be interested enough to keep reading.
Although I do not add references and footnotes, I try to be as accurate as possible with the information I pass along. Facts are checked with the National Library of Jamaica, Jamaica Information Service, etc. Posts about individuals are sometimes based on information from the person themself. Statistics are from STATIN (the Statistical Institute of Jamaica) or the CIA World Factbook. On occasion I will use Wikipedia but only when the entry is properly annotated and referenced.
Happy Reading!
