Sumario:This essay presents the Caribbean origins and influences in the work of No #145;l Deerr, principal scientist and historian of sugar cane in the angloamerican world. The paper focuses on his work, his experiments, the contents of his books and some of the actions carried out within the societies and businesses in which he lived and worked in the Caribbean, as well as in the centre of world sugar refineries, Brooklyn, New York, before leaving for India in 1921. A special contribution of this essay is the publication and analysis of the little known document, ÒMemorandum. Condiciones de la industria azucarera en CubaÓ, and published in 1915.
