Showing items in West Indies Books - Grenada
Below is a list of my stock of old secondhand and antiquarian books on Grenada for sale.
The small guide book on Grenada by Kay is worth having and the large dossier of documents on the prelude to the U.S. invasion of the island makes incredible reading. There is a good website done by a customer of mine on the revolution which I can recommend. Go to:- http://www.thegrenadarevolutiononline.com
