Notes

1. Schoenhals and Melanson's Revolution and Intervention in Grenada consists of two works, or as the authors state in the preface, “two juxtaposed essays, one from the Grenadian perspective, the other from that of the United States” (ix).

2. The West Indian condition, discussed by Thorndike in Chapter 1, is comprised of five elements: small size, limited resources, psychological dependence, economic dependence, and geopolitical strategic significance. See Grenada, 1–15, especially 11.

3. See “Grenada: The Man from GULP Returns,” Newsweek 103, no. 5, 30 Jan. 1984, p. 45.

4. The phrase is attributable to Richard Hart, latterly Attorney General in the PRG and author of a valuable introduction to In Nobody's Backyard: Maurice Bishop Speeches, 1979–1983, edited by Chris Searle (London: Zed Books, 1984).
