The Nobbie Stories for Children and Adults

After more than a decade in the United States, the Caribbean writer C L R James ran afoul of McCarthyism in 1953 and was deported. In exile in London, he began to write stories in the form of letters to his four-year-old son 'Nobbie', who remained in the States. This book presents James' aficionados, that is suitable for children and adults alike.

Constance Webb (1918-2005) spent many years working in the publishing industry as an editor and writer. Her correspondence with her husband, C. L. R. James, is the subject of the book "Special Delivery". Anna Grimshaw, associate professor of anthropology at Emory University, was C. L. R. James' research assistant at the end of his life and edited "Special Delivery" and "The C. L. R. James Reader".
