He was a manager of sugar plantation in Grenada before the age of 20, and later founder of the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, and a writer on economics, politics and geography. The letter initially refers to the favourable opportunities for investing in America, but the bulk of it deals with affairs on the island of Trinidad, from where it appears the writer had recently returned.
