The author has created a serious and informative pictorial work on the subject of the Crown Colony of the island of St. Helena, in the South Atlantic ocean. His dedication over a thirty year period in accumulating such a vast collection of works of art, must surely be an important and comprehensive title of reference. The author has faithfully reproduced a rare and rich chronicle of times gone by, spanning a period of four hundred years of St. Helena's distinguished and illustrious history. This title illuminates the diversity and enthusiasm with which the author epitomizes his unique and specialised subject.
