Boston: Little, Brown & Co., 1969. A history of the colony from the British acquisition to 1967, when this former governor's grandson came to report on it.

A rather more revealing insight into the condescending attitude of the British upper classes toward their colonial subjects than, perhaps, Pope-Hennessy had intended. 150 pp., 20 b&w prints and photos, 1 map. . First Edition. Hardbound. Very Good/Very Good. 23 x 16 cm..
