This 1840 work was the first detailed account of the colony of British Guiana. Schomburgk surveyed and helped determine its boundaries with Brazil and Venezuela, and explored the interior, discovering many new plant species. He also studied the native tribes, who were suffering from attacks by the Brazilians.

This 1848 volume gives a comprehensive picture of the history, geography and political economy of the British colony of Barbados. Schomburgk had been knighted in 1844 for his survey work in British Guiana, and was conscious of the importance of Barbados to Britain's trading interests in the West Indies.
