Introduction: a Harlem story, a diaspora story -- Guyana and Barbados (1898-1911) -- Panama (1911-1918) -- New York (1918-1923) -- The new Negro (1923-1926) -- Tropic death -- A person of distinction (1926-1929) -- The Caribbean and France (1928-1931) -- London I (1931-1939) -- Bradford-on-Avon (1939-1952) -- Roundway hospital and The second battle (1952-1957) -- London II (1957-1966) -- Postscript.

Summary: Eric Walrond (1898-1966) was a writer, journalist, and caustic critic. His short story collection, 'Tropic Death', was one of the first by a black author to depict Caribbean lives and voices in American fiction. Restoring him to his proper place as a luminary of the Harlem Renaissance, this biography situates 'Tropic Death' within Walrond's broader corpus and positions it as a catalyst and driving force behind the New Negro literary movement in America.
