Print & Deliver

After spending weeks in the Bodleian Libraries poring over letters, memoranda, committee minutes, reports, and account books tied to the Codrington estates in Barbados, last month brought a stark reckoning as opera singer and writer Peter Brathwaite visited the places in the papers—walking the land, meeting descendants, and confronting the living archive of his family's history. What are the Codrington estates? In 1710, The Society of the Propagation of the Gospel (SPG – the United Society Partn
