By the author, (2021). Despite the inappropriate cover illustration, this is a serious study based on part on interviews with the descendants of the Girmitiyas, indentured workers from India who were brought to Fiji by the British from 1879-1919, primarily to work as laborers on sugar cane plantations. Between 1879 and 1916, a total of 60,000 Indians arrived in Fiji. Approximately 25,000 of these returned to India, but many remained in Fiji hoping for a better life. From 1900 onwards, some Indians arrived as free immigrants, who were mostly from the provinces of Gujarat, Sindh, and Punjab. This book reveals the horrific treatment of Indian indentured workers - the indenture system (Girmit) under which they were recruited was slavery by another name. Includes several appendices, one with a list of the ships which brought the Indians to Fiji, a glossary, notes and several pages of with photographs. Unpaginated (445 pp). ISBN: 979-8770093414.
