Old Jamaica Journeys is a collection of ten revealing journeys people took to and through the island of Jamaica. First is Alexander Falconbridge's account of sailing with slaves to the island, which is followed by Henry Bleby's "Just to Look at Massa Minister." The complexities of the island are recalled in Charles Rampini's "To the Bullhead" and "In Bluefields Bay;" Edgar Bacon's "Port Antonio;" Charles James Ward's "The Blue Mountains;" John Henderson's "Bog Walk;" Joseph Williams's "Weird Happenings," (about the earthquake of 1907); and finally, H. G. De Lisser's "Kingston," and "On the Way to Montego Bay."
