  abstract: Focuses on key moments in the story of the first British Empire's rise and fall, including the sugar revolution in Barbados which made the English a nation of voracious consumers and transformed the island from a backward outpost into the richest English colony in the world, powered by tens of thousands of enslaved Africans, the change to state-driven imperialism with Cromwell's disastrous 'Western Design' and the bitter wars against the French, the zenith of Jamaican opulence and the island's subsequent calamitous decline and, the growing revulsion against slavery that led to Emancipation.
