Barbados, Sun, Sea, Superb! is a photographic-essay coffee-table book about the island of Barbados. It covers, in photographs, maps, and text Barbados's history, culture, people, flora, fauna, geography, and scenery, with a special emphasis on the touristic aspects of the island.
About the author
Born and raised in California, photojournalist Roger LaBrucherie began his exploration of islands in the late 1960s, when he undertook his training and service as a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer in Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic.
His formal education as an economist and lawyer at Harvard College and Stanford University has enabled him to bring an unusually deep and analytical approach to his subjects. It is hardly surprising, therefore, that his works are as highly acclaimed for their commitment to the research and accuracy of their texts as they are for the beauty of their visual presentations.
Among the islands he has covered to date are: Bermuda, Barbados, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, as well as the Hawaiian Islands.
