Growing Up in St. Augustine, Trinidad, W.I. This charming book is part three in a series of memoirs of the McDonald family of Trinidad, after "Beloved" and "Archie". Here, Thelma's and Archie's daughter Robin digs deep into her treasured childhood where she brings to vibrant life a loving family of many interests whose days were filled with fascinating encounters and experiences of a time gone-by enjoyed to the full with friends, neighbours and people you just met. One gets a lively glimpse of the joys and sadnesses, the tests and tribulations, trials and triumphs which in those days were so much more person-to-person lived than they are in this age of electronic relationships. Here she reconstructs the neighbourhood of St. Augustine during the 40s and 50s - creating a pictorial map as your guide. The book is also interspersed with some of her brother Ian McDonald's vivid and heartfelt poems. So join Robin in her re-discovery of a microcosm in time and place that has all but disappeared.
