Showing items in West Indies Books - Bermuda
Below is a list of my stock of old secondhand and antiquarian books on Bermuda for sale.
Collectors of Bermuda books can form a large and fascinating collection. The history of Bermuda has been well documented by Wilkinson and there are a number of fine illustrated books, my favorite being Williams 'Bermudiana' which has the fine photo illustrations by Rutherford.
