Publisher's Synopsis
This collection of short stories is set in and around the town of old victoria located on the Man O' War bay coast to the west of the Rio del Rey. The government changed the name of the town to Limbe, but to some, it still remains Victoria. The stories drip with this nostalgia and reflect the passing of time from innocence to whatever happens after innocence. It is still a boisterous beautiful town and the stories in this volume would be familiar to anybody who grew up in Victoria. Those not so fortunate will derive some pleasure from reading them. History says in 1858, Alfred Saker founded the first European settlements in Victoria but failed to convince the English government to make the area a crown colony. Just as well, the English returned after the Germans lost in the Great War, and did what Alfred Saker failed to do in 1858.
