Book Review


Caribbean Crusaders and the Harlem Renaissance. By Joyce Moore Turner. (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2005. xiv, 291 pp. Cloth, $55.00, ISBN 0-252-02996-8. Paper, $25.00, ISBN 0-252-07241-3.)
In this highly detailed yet expansive work, we follow the lives of Hermina Dumont Huiswoud (who was from British Guiana) and her future husband Otto Huiswoud (Dutch Guiana): their departure from their homelands for the United States; their meeting in New York City in 1923; and their immersion in radical politics (first in the Socialist party and subsequently the Communist party) that would take them to the Soviet Union, Africa, and Europe (most importantly to France in the 1930s). The book ends with the death of Hermina in 1998, thirty-seven years after Otto's death. . . .
