Abstract
sneak preview of the history of migration from an erstwhile British Colony to the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Overall, the book is a fine work of story-telling, the artistic portrayal migration of women from Guyana as well as those who stayed back. However, the authors have neglected the challenges faced by women as migrant and then as a woman. The volume is an exceptional contribution to the field of migration and diaspora. Still, it may disappoint those readers who should be looking for data-oriented or theoryoriented work on migration and diaspora.
