Tourist promotion booklet for the French West Indies. “Columbus discovered Guadeloupe on November 4, 1493. He named it after a monastery in Spain, keeping a promise he had made to Spanish monks. Over the centuries, control of the island changed hands many times, but it finally became a department of France in 1946. Martinique is an island of history, charm, colour and beauty. lt has been the home of the Ciboney, Arawak and Carib Indian.”
