The Isle of Wight has a fiercely proud history with monarchs, merchants, militiamen, smugglers, soldiers and sons of the plough all leaving their indelible mark. Rescued from skips and found in boxes in attics, these pictures bring the Isle of Wight to life in a special way. With the majority of them never having been published before, these archive photographs with informative captions will be of great interest to all who know this fascinating island.
JAN TOMS is descended from a long line of Islanders. Jan is addicted to history and research, has written historical features for the bi-monthly magazine Island Life and has produced more than fifty articles for the online magazine Suite 101, some with an Island connection.
