British Guiana Blue Book
This volume is a statistical yearbook for the Colony of British Guiana covering 1913–1914, printed by The Argosy Company in Georgetown. It contains an abstract of government expenditure across civil, judicial, and ecclesiastical establishments, along with comprehensive data on agriculture, criminal statistics, education, exports and imports, hospitals, population, revenue, and public works. The core material consists of detailed schedules of customs duties organized by commodity type—including provisions, alcohol, tobacco, metals, textiles, and other imported goods—with separate rates listed under British Preferential Tariff and General Tariff classifications. Specific duties are itemized per unit of measurement (per pound, gallon, barrel, ton, dozen, etc.), reflecting the colony's trade and fiscal administration during the early twentieth century.
