Product DescriptionCaribbean Casas is a richly illustrated account of the development of historically significant homes in the West Indies. Author Michael Connors, a decorative arts scholar of the West Indies, examines venerable houses that stand as testimony to the rich history and vibrant lifestyle that was, and remains, an important part of Caribbean culture. The book is divided into five chapters, one for each European heritage: the Spanish West Indies, the Leewards Dutch, English Islands, the French Antilles and the Danish Virgin Islands. An authoritative text sheds light on architectural richness of the area and the history of interior design gives the reader a unique view of the houses that combine tradition. . . More>>
