Bob Marley Museum - Kingston, Jamaica
















In the winter of 2000, I was teaching a course in American Literature for Nova Southeastern University in Kingston, Jamaica. While I was in Kingston, I visited the Bob Marley Museum which houses many of the albums, stage costumes, and instruments from Bob Marley's career. The Queen of Sheba restaurant is also on the grounds of the Museum. Although Kingston is not on the usual tourist itinerary, it is worth a visit.

For an excellent biography of Bob Marley, read Timothy White's book: Catch A Fire
