What to read after Massa Day Done?

The book traces the transition of constitutional status of Trinidad and Tobago from that of a British Crown Colony to that of an independent Republic. Divided into two parts, the first sketches the constitutional development from the Spanish capitulation of Trinidad in 1797 through the evolution of parliamentary government, self-government to Independence in the postcolonial world. It describes in greater detail the moves, after 1956, towards republicanism and the national debate on the 1976 constitution. The second part examines some of the issues generated by the new constitution and, in particular, looks at problems associated with the President, the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council and parliamentary representation.
