The following books deal with ska and reggae in Jamaica and the UK, but also contain
small snippets of information about the rest of the world. Although the books contradict
on some subjects, especially on details, all of them are of outstanding quality. Hopefully
this site is a welcome supplement.

a particular website very often, I have added a link.
