Franch Island Elegance

Martinique, Guadaloupe, Marie-Galante and Saint Martin are both French but also very much Caribbean. Politically provinces of France, they are not merely colonial relics of their mother country's past, but vital parts of France today. Nevertheless, they breathe with a Creole style of life all their own. This lavishly illustrated volume offers a view of the opulent world of the French Creole aristocracy of the colonial period, which still influence French Island taste and cultural life to this day.
