FIRST EDITION AND ONE OF THE MORE ELUSIVE TITLES IN BLACK'S TRAVEL SERIES A LOVELY BOOK IN FIRST AND ONLY EDITION. The blue seas and sun-drenched islands of the West Indies served as wonderful inspiration for both pen and paintbrush in this hard to find gem. Jamaica receives the lion's share of attention but other subjects include Barbadoes St. Lucia Dominica St. Thomas and Martinique. Archibald Forrest wonderfully captures the bright colourful scenery and colourful peoples of these tropic isles. Adam and Charles Black hardcover‎
